5 out of 5 stars Wonderful sampling of Oscar Peterson at his best.......2007-01-26

This is the sort of bargain-basement compendium I usually avoid, but boy am I glad I got this. This is Oscar Peterson at the height of his powers from the 1964-1966 period, with a well-sequenced selection of some his best recordings. Tracks 3 and 7 include Clark Terry on trumpet, while the rest are from trios Oscar recorded with during this period. Oscar's dazzling technique is on full display in every number, and each tune offers numerous pleasures.
