Tea for Two Comparison (Peterson, Costa, Tatum)

Oscar Peterson (1951) -- 0:00 - 3:01
Johnny Costa -- 3:02 - 9:39
Art Tatum -- 9:40 - 12:19

A comparison of a enormously popular jazz standard from the 1925 musical "No, No Nanette". This song has been reharmonized by the likes of Thelonious Monk, Nat "King" Cole, Fats Waller and others. Keep in mind that Art played and developed this song many times, Oscar was greatly influenced by Tatum, and Costa was influenced by both Art Tatum and Oscar Peterson as he said in an interview, though all three have their own personal musical styles. I'm also sad to see there aren't anymore videos on youtube of Johnny Costa, i may have to go download them from itunes and upload them since I see nobody else has. And please be aware that Art Tatum performed this piece numerous other times.
