More Jazz Piano Soloists!
Please give us double time solos (16th notes), at least for the slower tempos till 180bpm!!!!!!
Also higher tempos like Bebop: 240 -340 bpm (not so much double time needed here, though ;-)
RIFF for known songs like: (+ according style)
Hancock: Watermelon Man, Cantaloupe Isand
Zawinul: Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
etc,..

In the area of pop, how about some Elton John-style arpeggiated piano comping- something like what he played in "Tiny Dancer". Or like the piano in Cat Stevens' "Morning Has Broken".
I'd rather like some of this too......

I just realised that there isn`t a single Jazz Ballad and Bebop Piano soloist, not even in the new RTs. So PLEAZE:
PIANO BALLAD SOLOIST (JAZZ)
PIANO BEBOP (190bpm +) SOLOIST (JAZZ)

Would be great to finally have 'Rubato' style playing and comping for introductions and ballads ....for use on its own or with a non-metric bass and drum style. Pianist/educator Hal Galper has a record out called 'Furious Rubato' which is like a primer for this kind of playing applied to well known standards . Other good examples recently though are ECM piano trios like Bobo Stenson's , John Coltrane ballads performances after 1965 ...too many to mention really

What would be nice is if PG provided a template so musicians around the world could record their OWN "real track" samples and those could be added to PG's collections, a kind of 'open source' idea on the template with potentially commissionable submissions by the musicians? Think of the growth potential of Real Tracks then! :-)

Yes, several of us have been asking about this idea as early as beta testing of the original Real Tracks two years ago. There is a proprietary process PG Music uses that is not available to end users.
Interestingly, it is possible to make your own Real Drums, yet no one (that I am aware o)f has marketed any. Still, it would be nice to be able to produce our own Real Tracks.

Obviously not the riffs themselves, but the same feel as the following:
Billy Joel - Movin' Out, New York State Of Mind, My Life, Scenes From An Italian Restaurant
Bruce Hornsby - The Way It Is, Mandolin Rain
Elton John - Levon, Honky Cat, Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
Billy Vera - At This Moment
Rich Mullins - Sing Your Praise To The Lord (the arpeggiated middle part), Elijah, If I Stand
Mark Schultz - He's My Son, Legend of McBride, When You Give, Remember Me
Styx/Dennis De Young - Lady, Babe, Come Sail Away
Barry Manilow - Mandy, Weekend In New England, Even Now, I Was A Fool (To Let You Go)
Paul McCartney - Maybe I'm Amazed
Thanks for the consideration.

I think some nicely intense Billy Joel-style tracks would do very well -- patterned after "Angry Young Man", "Zanzibar" and/or "Our Italian Restaurant"; "Big Man On Mulberry Street"; and "Summer: Highland Falls". I think one inspired by "She's Always A Woman To Me" would be very useful for a lot of styles. Something Steinman-ish and Bruce Hornsby-ish would also be way cool.  Basically, stuff with -- how shall I put this? -- a lot more energy than some of the pop styles we currently have.
