Erroll Louis Garner (June 15, 1921 – January 2, 1977) was a jazz pianist and composer whose distinctive and melodic style brought him both popular acclaim and the admiration of peers. It's a well-known fact that Garner was never able to read sheet music. His 1955 recording, Concert by the Sea, ranks among his very best work and has Eddie Calhoun on bass and Denzil Best on drums. Ironically this recording, in Carmel California, was made using relatively primitive sound equipment. But Erroll's inventiveness and swing got the point across in each cut.
