  1. This is a fun video that features Oscar Peterson’s “Wave” performed by both Bossa Nova stalwart Tom Jobim AKA Antônio Carlos Jobim in 1986 AND by Peterson in 1976 (youtu.be/e0mEAo3anwI?si=snTWfm)

  2. The Oscar Peterson Trio - Affinity

    1962 release that seemed appropriate to play after Quintessence, since it starts with Waltz for Debbie, and also features Ray Brown (bass, who contributes an original - Gravy Waltz) and Ed Thigpen (drums)

    This is a classic piano trio session, and with Peterson at the keys, you know it's not going to disappoint...

  3. Oscar Peterson, “Motions and Emotions,” 1970 on MPS

    Oscar Peterson covering “popular” tunes, including “Yesterday,” “Eleanor Rigby,” and “Ode to Billy Joe.” I know some folks will find this schmaltzy but as an Oscar Peterson fan I really enjoy it.

    My copy is the 2018 reissue in the Ambassadors for MPS series, on 180g vinyl pressed at Optimal GmbH and an insert reproducing the original master tape box along with liner notes by Till Brönner, the ambassador to MPS in this case.

  7. Count Basie and Oscar Peterson, Night Rider, 1980 on Pablo

    One of my favorite Pablo records, bringing together two legends: Count Basie and Oscar Peterson, with support from Louis Bellson and John Heard. Produced by Norman Granz and engineered by Val Valentin, with liner notes by Nat Hentoff.

    Basie plays organ on “Memories of You” and Peterson plays electric piano on “Blues for Pamela.” The opening 12:38 cut of the title track is, as they say, worth the price of admission on its own.

    My copy, via Beatnick Records in Montréal, QC, is a Canadian pressing (Manufactured and Distributed in Canada by RCA Limited).
