One of my 2 favorite jazz pianists, along with Art Tatum. I heard Oscar at a jazz club once but when he was ill several years ago. A great pleasure to hear the legend.
It's not Confirmation, it's Anthropology. At 1:05 it seems to be the beggining of Denzil Best's "Move". And he also plays another Bird's tune at 2:16, "Moose The Mooche".

This smokes Bud Powell and I may even like it more than Lennie Tristano. I obviously need to hear more Oscar Peterson.

@Modes9 Strange sentence. Lennie got a totally different style and feeling. You could rather say Oscar is good but beer is better.

One of the best versions of this tune I ever hear (and the most influential for me)

i agree. it's unbelievable how good is his phrasing and control. technique is incredible!
mkrznar 2 years ago
That's absolutely right. His technique is comparable to Art Tatum, his greatest idol (and one of my idols too!)
