Oscar Peterson Trio Nigerian Marketplace


Another magical 'live' album I listen to a lot, and demo it a lot too. This is an early digital recording (1981) that shows how good was over 30 years ago.

My favourite track on this album is the first track on side 2 - supposedly, Chick Corea was in the wings waiting to come on as the next set after Oscar Peterson. When Peterson saw him there, he went to town on the Nancy with the Laughing Face. One of the best piano jazz albums I own.

If you can find it, get the red vinyl version.
