Roger Williams was certainly the most popular pianist in America during the 20th century with Billboard magazine still ranking him as the best selling piano artist in history. Four complete albums: 'With These Hands', 'Always', 'Songs Of The Fabulous Fifties' (which includes the No. 1 hit "Autumn Leaves") and 'Temptation'. Plus three bonus tracks from 'Songs Of The Soaring 60s'. Despite his huge popularity in the USA, most of his 100 plus albums have never been on CD so this is a release that is not to be missed! Fully detailed liner notes cover his entire career.
