Justin Time essential collection release on double LP!

Oscar Peterson (August 15, 1925 - December 23, 2007) is one of the greatest jazz pianists of all time, releasing more than 200 recordings, winning seven Grammy Awards, as well as a lifetime achievement award from the Recording Academy.

Ken Dryden, AllMusic says: "Oscar Peterson's trio with Ray Brown and Herb Ellis lasted from 1953 to 1959 and is well documented on records, but the appearance in 2003 of this previously unreleased 1958 concert at the Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver is welcome news to the pianist's fans.

"Buoyed by a receptive audience and always in the mood to play to the best of their abilities, the musicians outdo themselves throughout the set. Among the highlights are lengthy explorations of 'How High the Moon' (which is centered around Brown's tasty solo) and Peterson's 'The Music Box Suite,' cooking interpretations of a pair of the late Clifford Brown's best-known compositions ('Joy Spring' and 'Daahoud'), and a pair of little-known originals by Ellis (including a lovely solo ballad, 'Patricia,' and the blistering 'Pogo'). Add it all up and any fan of Oscar Peterson will want to add this (album) to his or her collection."
