Today's Gem:
Oscar Peterson Trio with Milt jackson -- VERY TALL
The first time Oscar and Jackson recorded together. The Vibraphone and the Piano make a very good pairing. Wonderful and unique sound.
Six Tunes. All excellent. Includes 'on green dolphin street',(for some reason I love that title) 'work song', and 'john brown's body'.
Awesome interplay between Oscar and Jackson on 'work song'. I felt there was a lot of good natured 'head cutting' going on between the two throughout the entire set.
All performance were Five Star.
Jackson seems to be a different player once he is away from MJQ, or more to the point, away from John Lewis.
When the Good Lord said BOP!, Lewis thought he siad BACH!, And away he went.
Awesome set. Everyone has to have it. Case Closed!
Cheers
