I won’t argue. Only Art Tatum could be better at the piano.

I think there’s a story about Oscar being on stage at a club playing, someone told him that Art Tatum walked in and was sitting at the back of the room. Oscar got off the piano and said he did not deserve to play while Tatum was in the room
