Re: good pianists
Are you implying these people are better than Elton John and Billy Joel?

I see what you did here.

Re: good pianists
these people are better than most people! :P

Glenn Gould could've been the best artist who ever lived, ever. next to Bach himself anyway.

Mike Garson

...and even though I've intentionally avoided that whole Elton John / Billy Joel thing for a while now

Re: good pianists
Keith Jarrett is god. No argument!

And, of course, Oscar Peterson. And maybe Keith Emerson, although I am not sure he counts as a pianist really. And Tom Waits does ok, but not awesome.
