Oscar Peterson "A Jazz Odyssey" Album Review

Probably the best compilation I've heard so far
If you want to get to know the great Canadian pianist Oscar Peterson, this is a perfect place to start. I don't think I've ever heard better sampler from someone's career (forgate "Ultimate","Finest Hour","Jazz Portrait" and other otherwise fine editions).

Recorded in various formats, as a solo artist, leader, sideman, or an equal collaborator, his playing is brilliant on each and every track.
This CD covers Peterson's effervecent musical personality in the best possible way; featuring also Ray Brown, Dizzy Gillespie, Billie Holiday, Lester Young, Sonny Stitt, Clark Terry and numerous others (see the tags...).

Highly recomended.

Herbie Hancock "The Box" Album Review

Must have.
Some call it transitional music. Everything Miles did was transitional.
What a great band. Everyone soars, great Wayne, Herbie's touch, Ron's the center, Tony's the key, Miles... just funks up my bag.
