I'm a great admirer of Tucker. BTW, I once heard that  that Tucker was banished for life from RVG's studio after he put his hands on one of Rudy's mics there, this in the course of a recording session.

Wow. I've read about RVG getting angry at musicians for putting their drinks on his piano -- but I didn't realize that he was that persnickety.

 

NP:

Teddy Wilson - Striding After Fats: A Tribute to Fats Waller (Black Lion, UK vinyl)
I'm no Wilson expert, but this is the best late-period TW that I've heard.
