Dear Bob,
He does it on the Taz Jaz TJZ-1001 LP 'Superstride' along with 3/4 ala
Tatum and some 4/4 stride.
And several keys.
Recorded in CA July 1976.
Wonderful.
Unfortunately he does not appear to have ever recorded a version of
"Maple Leaf Rag", which surprises me.
Perhaps not.
Kind regards,
Bill.
