Biography

One of the greatest jazz pianists of all time, Oscar Peterson (b. 1925) is also quite possibly the most prolific. Ever since 1950, Peterson has recorded an enormous amount of music, and he has consistently amazed listeners with his brilliant playing.

Born in Montreal, Canada, Peterson started having classical piano lessons when he was six and his musical abilities were obvious from nearly the… Read more in Amazon's Oscar Peterson Store

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fine Collection, August 13, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: History of an Artist (Audio CD)
From its title, this 2 CD set appears to be some kind of a "best of" compilation covering Oscar Peterson's career. However, it is a collection of recordings made in 1972-1974 with various combinations of sidemen that he played with after the breakup of the Ray Brown/Ed Thigpen Trio. This is a mellow but swinging group of songs that is as good as Peterson's best recordings. I recommend this set to anyone who enjoys the Verve recordings from the 60's.
