This extraordinary and intimate live recording (the atmospheric rattling of plates and clinking of glasses in the background making the listener feel as if they were placed in the front row of the audience) was recorded in the summer of 1958, in Peterson’s home country of Canada. It features Herb Ellis (guitar) and Ray Brown (double bass), who by t...
A follow up to their exquisite collaboration on Webster’s Soulville (released in 1957), this 1959 release sees the saxophonist ably accompanied by Oscar Peterson and his then trio of Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen (drums). A master in the art of ballad playing, Webster elegantly weaves his way through a set of 7 standards (a particular highlight being hi...
Peterson’s stint with Norman Granz’s ‘Pablo’ recording captured the pianist in the midst of a golden era of creativity, and these live recordings from 1973 with guitarist Joe Passand double bassist Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen are well worth seeking out. Whilst Pass and Pederson are exceptional talents in their own right, it is Peterson who stands...
The cool-toned tenor saxophone of Stan Getz proved to be the perfect partner for Oscar Peterson on this iconic meeting from 1957. Set up by impresario Norman Granz, who was keen on pairing Peterson with different artists from his Jazz at the Philharmonic stable, Getz’s maturity and musicality (much like Ben Webster) demonstrates a different side to...
Oscar Peterson’s first full recording of unaccompanied solo piano, this selection from his vast discography released in 1968 is well worth tracking down. Performing without the constraints of other musicians, Peterson playfully stretches out on a set of well-worn jazz standards, conjuring moments of virtuosic magic throughout. Forming part of a ser...
Many fans of Oscar Peterson believe this 1956 live recording, taken in Stratford, Ontario, Canada to be amongst the finest examples of his famous trio comprising Herb Ellis and Ray Brown. At the time, the trio was considered one of the slickest outfits in jazz, and it’s plain to hear why on this 11 track CD, as they demonstrate their telepathic com...
Two of the Few occupies a unique position on this list, being the only duo record that we have chosen to highlight. Featuring vibraphonist Milt Jackson alongside Peterson, sparks fly as the pair blitz their way through a set of standards including the sublime ‘Oh, Lady Be Good’ and ‘Just You, Just Me’. The two jazz musicianscommunicate beautifully ...
We’ve bent the rules slightly here, and have chosen to include a compilation. Between 1952-1955, under the supervision of Norman Granz, Peterson embarked on a truly monumental task, recording ten albums over a three-year period, each focusing on a different master of The Great American Songbook: Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Duke Ell...
No list of Peterson’s top 10 albums would be complete without the inclusion of Night Train. Recorded in 1962 under the supervision of producer Norman Granz, and featuring Ray Brown (double bass) and Ed Thigpen (drums), many view this seminal release to be one of definitive recorded examples of the piano trio format. It remains to this day Peterson’...
Released in 1964 on Verve, this is another of the most famous and popular albums in the Oscar Peterson discography. We Get Requestsfeatures arguably the most famous iteration of the Oscar Peterson Trio, with Ray Brown on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums. As the title suggests, it features some of the most well-known (and oft-requested!) jazz standards ...
