Here's a bit of fun - famous pianists, first part 'older-established' ones, who used to be on TV a lot in the 50's and 60's. Put another way, unless you're over 50 yourself you probably won't have heard of 'em ! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. and 3pts for the last one as it's difficult.......Will accept the alias of the person when recording the famous no.1 hit. 11. That's it for Part I, 1pt for each. Good luck !

Will score these tonight when I get home.
In the meantime we have a submission from the Mystery Guest :
Mystery Pianist Guest is at it again. How many have still not worked out who it is? Unfortunately, I cannot try 1, 2 or 4 before no image has appeared on my screen.
But 5 is Joe “Mr Piano” Henderson, a bit of a giveaway as his name appears on the record sleeve, but I am old enough to know him anyway. As I did 3, 8, 9 and 10 also. 7 could be Oscar Peterson??????
Now I can actually SEE those other pictures, I will now name Winifred Attwell as No.2.

Can score these in one go.
Petem, immaculate, 4pts. Sav, 1pt for Ray Charles, 0.5 only for Fats. :-X ;) Mystery guest : 1pt for Winnie and 1pt for Joe "Mr Piano" Henderson. Would have got bonus for noticing the connection that both were fond of flashing their pearly-white gnashers. ;D ;D 7) is not Oscar, Sav's answer was closer, though not accurate.
Leaderboard:
1. Petem 4pts 2. mysteryguest 2pts 3. Sav 1.5pts

Okay, I have to start thinning the quizzes out somehow, so Pianists have to go !
Missing answers : 1. Duke Ellington; 6. Count Basie; 11. Al Hazan, otherwise known as "B.Bumble" - No.1 hit Nut Rocker by B.Bumble and the Stingers.
Well done anyway. This one finished:
1. Petem 4pts 2= Sav 2pts 2= mysteryguest 2pts
