Winner of Two Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance, Soloist and Best Jazz Instrumental Performance, Group
Jazz / Bop; Swing
Oscar Peterson - piano Herb Ellis -- guitar Ray Brown - bass Bobby Durham -- drums
The evenings at New York's Blue Note produced some of the most outstanding jazz you'll ever hear. In 1990, the classic Peterson trio-with Ray Brown on bass, Herb Ellis on guitar and featuring Bobby Durham on drums-played a phenomenally successful engagement at the landmark club. This event was a special reunion, bringing the trio back together after twenty years apart. To no one's surprise, it was a tremendous success. Oscar Peterson remains the absolutely imposing musician he's been for forty years now, with a dizzying virtuosity and an awesome command of the keyboard. This unique group plays dazzling versions of classic jazz and popular standards and some of Oscar's intriguing originals. |
