Stuff Similar to The Three Sounds??
Hi, Everyone!
I just love catchy piano "clappers" such as the following 3 songs on Gene Harris and the Three Sounds' album "Live at the Lighthouse":
Held my Head in Shame
Makin' Bread Again
Bad Bad Whiskey
Gene Harris has a lot of similar stuff on his solo recordings for Concord, but most of the tracks are way too long to play for dancers. Are there any other pianists with a similar feel?
By the way, I've read that G.Harris has been criticized for playing music that's "too accessible." Who wants "accessible" music? Certainly not dancers! Hah!

Apparently not. But I do appreciate Rayned's response and wouldn't mind hearing others'.
