An American Hall of Fame pianist - Floyd Cramer


Along with Chet Atkins, Boots Randolph and Owen Bradley, Cramer is credited with helping create "The Nashville Sound" in the 1950s and 1960s. He played a "bent note" or "slip note" style - hitting a note and almost instantly sliding into the next - that influenced a generation of pianists. His 1960 hit, "Last Date," became an instrumental classic that has been learned down through the years by thousands of young piano students. "It's a simple melody," Cramer told The Associated Press in 1989. "It's good exercise for both hands. You are playing solid left hand patterns and a dominant melody with the right hand. It's different and fresh to most piano students."
