Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Piano, bass and ... guitar.......2007-01-13

Recorded at famous Hollywood jazz venue in 1955, this two-disc live performance captures the lyricism of cool jazz that typified the post-war scene. No drumming here. Herb Ellis keeps the the beat on guitar with Ray Brown on bass and Oscar at the piano.


Oscar selected 30 tunes over several sets for 2.5 hours of thoroughly enjoyable music. Mostly standards with a few original compositions added. Most renditions are upbeat and lilting, with Oscar providing his signature sub-vocals.

5 out of 5 stars Classic 50's jazz.......2007-01-03

If you're a boomer who likes 50's jazz this is the one. A great stylist who still plays a recognizable tune. One of my favorites!

5 out of 5 stars I'm rating this 6 STARS!!! Simply Superb!.......2001-04-11

I'm a huge fan of Oscar Peterson and have collected most of his albums. Recorded live at Zardi's on 8 November 1955, this is truly one of his best albums. Together with Ray Brown and Herb Ellis, Oscar put on one of the most dazzling performances in his life. You will find yourself jiving and bopping, from start to end of this incredible one and a half hour double CD. In short, this is a MUST BUY for every jazz fan out there. Just ask my wife. For a jazz-tolerent person, even she thinks it's a great album. So, what are you waiting for?
