Pianist question on Dizzy Spotlite 1946

[Gheorghe]

A few days ago I purchased Dizzy "Showtime at Spotlite 1946" together with the Hank Mobley "Newark 1953". Needless to say it´s fantastic. On one track "Convulsions" there is another piano player (Monk is the pianist on all the other tracks). In the liner notes, the great Ira Gitler says he couldn´t identifie the piano player. It might be someone, who got recently into "bop" and plays heavily on the beat.

Well I listened more closely to that piano player and think it could be Milt Jackson. He might have switched from the vibes to the piano. I remember Milt Jackson´s piano playing on that Fats Navarro-Howard McGhee album for BlueNote, where Milt plays both vibes and piano and takes a piano solo on "The Skunk". The piano on Dizzy´s "Convulsions" sounds exactly that way: He plays only single notes in a more "stiff" manner. It sounds like someone, who - though he knows exactly where the keys are - doesn´t have the aproach of a pianist. Even the lines he plays and the astute quote of "You´re a Sweetheart" sounds so much like Milt Jackson, that I´m quite sure it´s Milt who plays.

Anybody shares my opion? Bop freaks?
