Mon premier album Jazz (2004-10-01)  Le premier album de jazz que j'ai découvert a l'âge de 13 ans, qui m'a initié au Jazz. Oscar avait 36 ans lors de l'enregistrement et était presqu'au sommet de son art. L'ambiance des clubs a son meilleur, au point ou nous entendons les bruits de verres qui s'entrechoquent. Les yeux fermés, on s'y croirait presque! Nous pouvons imaginer les musiciens jouer, les barmans préparer les cocktails et les clients relaxer en écoutant cette musique enivrante et douce a la fois. Un incontournable pour les fans de Peterson et les amoureux d'un style de Jazz qui refuse de mourir ou d'évoluer.
Horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!! (2004-06-05)  If I could give this album no stars, I would. This album is pitiful! Peterson cant swing for his life. Ray Brown is good here, and I just can't figure Ed Thigpen out. Man, this was terrible. If you buy this, you will be dissapointed!!
Sometimes I'm Happy (2001-12-20)  Oscar Peterson's rendition of "Sometimes I'm Happy" (track 5) ranks as one of my most treasured listening experiences ever. I used to play it in my car, over and over and over, and I can sing along through the entire 11 minutes of it. The melodic inventiveness is unending and amazing. I've listened to this one track hundreds of times and I still enjoy listening to it. I would buy the CD just for that track alone...
This is the best album of my life (2000-06-18)  I love this album. My mom had this album; when I was a little thing she would put it on after I went to bed and I began to understand that she needed to listen to this music to relax and unwind, not to mention that what a good jazz afficionado my mom was. When I was a teenager, my friends were listening to disgusting heavy metal, new wave, punk, what have you, but I would put this old album on after school and immediately feel relaxed and transported to this smokey, boozy, jazzy, piano nightclub in Chicago. This was such a release for me. I felt so much more sophisticated than the idiots around me. As I grew older, and I was with guys I liked, I would put this album on the stereo, and whoa, the hormones would surge. I was fortunate to see old O.P. on a tour and asked the man I ended up marrying if he wanted to go with me, and he said "oh all right." Needless to say this has become his favourite jazz album also. This is good sexy music. So now I am grown, am married, and have kids, and I still love this music. I become a limp rag when I hear "In the wee small hours of the morning". We all have THAT song that sings to us. This is the one for me. Let your children listen to this album and they will become better people
