Not to sound racist but Dick plays rag music like the way a white man with a classical piano background would. His timing, tempo, and dynamics are way off, and, lastly, the old man has no vitality. He ain't no professor of rag.
Dick is a Master a walking Talking Playing Wikipedia Of Amereican Pop and Jazz Piano.Thanks
Dick Hyman
