This guy is one of the best piano players out there, but better yet, he wants to understand what he's playing, why he loves it, who the originators were and why, etc. As an old man it gives me hope that there are still musicians working at this level. In a just world people like this become important, role models even. I think we know what kind of world we currently inhabit... Good luck Royce Martin! You're my hero anyway.
This is so wonderful! Could listen all day.
So many subtle styles melded together to create a brand new one. Wow, love this guy more and more as I listen!!
Man! What a performance. I could listen to Royce play "Bethena" a thousand times.
Magnificent pianist and communicator.
