WHAT IS SWING REALLY ?

WHAT IS SWING REALLY ?

Swing is something that has fascinated me since I was a child.
Just a few years old, I started recording from the radio - I borrowed my father's stereo in the early mornings while everyone was asleep.

One particular musician caught my interest, because he did everything differently, moving off the beat; both later and faster, with extensive use of syncopating chords.
He did this with both hands, because he was a pianist.

His name was Erroll Garner, and he couldn't play by sheet music.
In my opinion, he is the greatest swing jazz musician who ever lived.

Here is a song that very well demonstrates his way of playing, and I am also attaching a recording I made with Tyros1, where I try to play as he did.
