I didn't even know that Monk played stride. I must have a lot to learn. Oh, I just remembered that Tatum plays Tea For Two, like Monk, although I don’t think Tatum’s take on it6 is stride.

He plays some great stride too, but it's been so long since they've been out of the box that I can't remember the titles. I think Tatum is pretty much out of fashion these days (maybe like stride) and seems to be an almost forgotten figure. He was one of Oscar Peterson's major early influences too.
