You can put his playing right up there with the World's virtuoso players. His hands weren't just some of the quickest in piano history, his mind was even quicker & his improvisations are induplicable to... 80-90% of the World's greatest jazz pianists?? He was a very special musician, rare for not just craftsmanship & pride in his work but also for his congeniality to fellow musicians. He really cared about all music, not just his own.

And let's not forget the awesome bass player? Not mentioned in the credits, but almost certainly Sam Jones (Webster, Gillespie etc and of course Cannonball Adderley) who joined with Bobby Durham in the new trio (1966-70) following Ed Thipgen and Ray Brown. What a fabulous bass player he was. A lovely session altogether and so good to see two greats, Dexter and Oscar, working together with such swing.

The second tune is kind of best example of Oscar Petersons ars poerica. Not only he was the greatest player, but he also made the other members of the trio shine. Take the bassists: Ray Brown, here Sam Jones, later Dave Young and NHØP, and listen how the arrangements are set up like taylor made for them. Often different versions af the same tune over the decades illustrate this Take For example Reunion Blues. And the same true for drummers. Take Tin Tin Deo as an example, played by Ed Thipen, or Bobby Durham (the drummer in this record) and later Periods Lewis Nash. (Idont know if Martin Drew played it...)

Oscar raised swing to another level above Count Basie's Band or Ellington at Newport '56, but more than Art Tatum, his playing is often technique for technique's sake. Tatum keeps a musical idea going with every arpeggio and momentary key change. OP is to Tatum as Sonny Stitt is to Charlie Parker. Other pianists borrowed Oscar's swing and made it more accessible: Monty Alexander, Gene Harris, Benny Green. Bill Evans was another story altogether, bringing to the piano a lyrical sublimity, a pathos, an emotional depth and range that had seemed beyond the pianoforte's scope. And Dexter tells a story on tenor as authoritatively as Frank did with Nelson Riddle.

Having said that, I do listen the great artists with a different ear: how they feel together, whats the musical context, and how a composition is made up like one arch, having a beginning, top, then end. Again too long, sorry...

Speedygonzales and pink panter. WoW!!
I keep hearing something that sounds like a kazoo bleeding into the music. I’m ignoring it as much as possible because the rest of the music is brilliant.

Oscar raised swing to another level above Count Basie's Band or Ellington at Newport '56, but more than Art Tatum, his playing is often technique for technique's sake. Tatum keeps a musical idea going with every arpeggio and momentary key change. OP is to Tatum as Sonny Stitt is to Charlie Parker. Other pianists borrowed Oscar's swing and made it more accessible: Monty Alexander, Gene Harris, Benny Green. Bill Evans was another story altogether, bringing to the piano a lyrical sublimity, a pathos, an emotional depth and range that had seemed beyond the pianoforte's scope. And Dexter tells a story on tenor as authoritatively as Frank did with Nelson Riddle.

well, at least you admit that Tatum's playing also included flash and fluff.
Dext doesn't play until 15:55
