Oscar Peterson Trio | The Trio (LP)

Joe Pass/Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen. Personnel: Oscar Peterson (piano); Joe Pass (guitar); Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen (bass). Recorded live at London House, Chicago, Illinois in 1973. Previously issued on Pablo CD (2310-701). Includes liner notes by Benny Green. Digitally remastered by Phil De Lancie (1998, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California). Guitarist Joe Pass and bassist Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen both play well on these live performances, but the reason to acquire this set is for the remarkable Oscar Peterson. The pianist brilliantly investigates several jazz styles on "Blues Etude" (including stride and boogie-woogie), plays exciting versions of his "Chicago Blues" and "Easy Listening Blues," tears into "Secret Love," and shows honest emotion on "Come Sunday." Peterson really flourished during his years with Norman Granz's Pablo label, and this was one of his finest recordings of the period.
