Yikes!

I'd heard some of his stuff before, but I've been spinning This Is Oscar Peterson and it is just nuts.

Jazz piano. Tight little combos. And this guy.... jeez. If Jerry Lee Lewis had played jazz, maybe.

Anybody? Anybody?

I have a CD with Lester Young and the Oscar Peterson trio.

It's pretty good. (y)

Yeah -- I know that one. It is good.

And one with Scott Terry, too.

But this solo stuff is just wicked, mon.

Like: if you thought Some Old Bullshit was good, you oughta check Check Your Head.










































Okay -- that's a little too far, but you get the idea.

Yeah I get the idea.

Damn I'm not listening to enough Jazz.

I'm really into Curys Chestnut right now.
