1	Stan Getz and the Oscar Peterson Trio (1957) more music like this by Stan Getz & The Oscar Peterson Trio add to wishlist In that quintessential breakthrough year of modern jazz -- 1957 -- Norman Granz was fond of pairing the legendary drummerless trio of Oscar Peterson with several different stars from the Jazz at the Philharmonic concert series. In this case, Stan Getz is the nominee, and Granz could not have found a better match for the pianist alongside his ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $9.14!
2	Night Train (1962) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Trio add to wishlist Verve's Master Edition of the Oscar Peterson Trio date released as Night Train includes stately covers of blues and R&B standards like "The Honeydripper," "C-Jam Blues," "Georgia on My Mind," "Bags' Groove," "Moten Swing," and "Things Ain't What They Used to Be." Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen provide tight accompaniment, and there are six previously ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $12.72!
3	The Ultimate Collection (1998) more music like this by George Gershwin add to wishlist George Gershwin: The Ultimate Collection is a nice double-disc set that collects definitive performances of Gershwin standards from Rhapsody in Blue to Funny Face. It's a wildly eclectic collection, containing cuts from Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Audrey Hepburn, Sarah Vaughan, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, and the Boston Pops ... see all copies from $9.99! new only from $27.83!
4	American Songbook Series: Jerome Kern (1994) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from $7.90!
5	Night and Day: The Cole Porter Songbook (1990) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist With their vast back catalog of classic vocal sides, the Verve label has been releasing a seemingly endless line of songbook collections featuring a who's who of jazz greats. Irving Berlin, Gershwin, Ellington, and Rodgers & Hart have all been feted. Now it's Cole Porter's turn. Over the course of the 17 chestnuts heard here, the likes of Fred ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.88!
6	Have Yourself a Jazzy Little Christmas [Verve] (1989) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This 15-track CD has something for everyone: the smooth vocal styling of Billy Eckstine on "Christmas Eve," and the purring Dinah Washington on the seductive "Ole Santa," and Ella Fitzgerald showing her soft and sentimental side on the single, "The Secret of Christmas." Billie Holiday, with help from Benny Carter and Sweets Edison, warms up the ... see all copies from $4.15! new only from $10.70!
7	The Sound of the Trio (1961) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Those who consider themselves Oscar Peterson completists should be aware of The London House Sessions, a generous five-CD set that focuses exclusively on the Peterson Trio's 1961 engagement at Chicago's London House. However, completists are the only ones who would want to invest in this collection; others would be better off with individual CDs ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $12.51!
8	Tracks (1970) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Oscar Peterson appeared on hundreds of recordings during his long career, though he made far too few solo albums. Tracks, recorded for MPS in 1970, is easily one of his finest efforts, with imaginative treatments of songs from several different decades. The stunning opener is "Give Me the Simple Life" (a piece written in the 1930s and revived as a ... see all copies from $4.44! new only from $13.74!
9	Pure Jazz [Polygram] (2001) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Though it's part of the Pure series, Verve's Pure Jazz almost seems more as part of the Ken Burns Jazz multi-disc series, especially since it was released during that documentary's airing on PBS. Any of the tie-in discs to Ken Burns Jazz were designed to give an overview, either of an artist or an entire jazz style, while Pure Jazz is designed to ... see all copies from $2.61! new only from $7.95!
10	The More I See You (1995) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist After Oscar Peterson suffered a severe stroke in the spring of 1993, it was feared that he would never again play on a professional level, but two years of intense therapy resulted in the masterful pianist returning to what sounds, on this Telarc CD, like near-prime form. For the all-star date, The More I See You, Peterson tears into seven ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
11	Girl from Ipanema: The Antonio Carlos Jobim Songbook (1995) more music like this by Antonio Carlos Jobim add to wishlist The first of several tribute albums issued just after Antonio Carlos Jobim's death, this one generally sticks to his most famous songs as interpreted by several Brazilian and American artists from PolyGram's archives. Jobim himself appears on such obvious choices as the best-selling Stan Getz, João Gilberto, and Astrud Gilberto hit "The Girl from ... see all copies from $4.35! new only from $8.16!
12	Trail of Dreams: A Canadian Suite (2000) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Trail of Dreams: A Canadian Suite is hardly a typical Oscar Peterson album. This time, the Canadian pianist doesn't play any standards and doesn't take a bop-oriented approach; in fact, Trail of Dreams isn't a straight-ahead jazz album but rather combines jazz with elements of pop, classical, and symphonic music. Recorded in April 2000, this CD ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.75!
13	Oscar Peterson Trio Plus One (1964) more music like this by Oscar Peterson/Clark Terry add to wishlist Some guest soloists get overshadowed by Oscar Peterson's technical prowess, while others meet him halfway with fireworks of their own; trumpeter Clark Terry lands in the latter camp on this fine 1964 session. With drummer Ed Thigpen and bassist Ray Brown providing solid support, the two soloists come off as intimate friends over the course of the ... see all copies from $3.31! new only from $7.71!
14	West Side Story (1962) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Trio add to wishlist West Side Story was a bit of an unusual session for several reasons. First, the popularity of both the Broadway musical and the film version that followed meant that there were many records being made of its music. Second, rather than woodshed on the selections prior to entering the studio, the Oscar Peterson Trio spontaneously created impressions ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $12.51!
15	Oscar Peterson & Dizzy Gillespie (1974) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist This album was the first of five projects in which pianist Oscar Peterson dueted with a trumpeter. Now reissued on CD, the encounter finds Dizzy Gillespie (then 57) in good form for the period, interacting with Peterson on such pieces as "Caravan," "Autumn Leaves," "Blues for Bird" and two of Gillespie's originals that have become standards: ... see all copies from $7.47! new only from $9.14!
16	A Jazz Odyssey (2002) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist This 18-track selection of Oscar Peterson's work was assembled to coincide with the great pianist's autobiography. Centering on his most creative period, from 1950-1970, this compilation focuses intently on the years Peterson spent playing with Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, Stan Getz, Billie Holiday, Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Roy Eldridge ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $10.60!
17	Late Night Piano (1998) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Late Night Piano gives listeners a look at the intimate side of jazz piano, with tracks from Erroll Garner, Bill Evans, Count Basie, George Shearing, Bud Powell and even Antonio Carlos Jobim. ~ Keith Farley, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.44! new only from $6.39!
18	Night Rider (1978) more music like this by Count Basie with Oscar Peterson add to wishlist When they first met up for a full album in 1974, the two-piano team of Count Basie and Oscar Peterson must have seemed like an unlikely matchup. After all, Peterson is known for filling up his rapid solos with virtuosic passages while Basie is the master of the "less-is-more" approach, making every note count. But because Peterson has such high ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $10.60!
19	Oscar Peterson & Clark Terry (1975) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Pianist Oscar Peterson and flugelhornist Clark Terry always made for a perfect matchup. Their duet set (one of five Peterson made during this period) is quite friendly, witty and hard-swinging. C.T. generally sets the joyous mood and on numbers such as "On a Slow Boat to China," "Shaw 'Nuff," "No Flugel Blues" and "Mack the Knife," the warm-toned ... see all copies from $7.84! new only from $9.14!
20	In Tune (1971) more music like this by Oscar Peterson Trio & the Singers Unlimited add to wishlist The Singers Unlimited were a logical extension of the Hi-Lo's. Gene Puerling and Don Shelton were both members of the Hi-Lo's and, after the group broke up, Puerling became a greatly in-demand arranger. In 1967 Puerling, Shelton, Len Dresslar, and Bonnie Herman came together to form the Singers Unlimited. They were a very unusual vocal group ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $8.16!
21	Exclusively for My Friends, Vol. 4: My Favorite Instrument (1968) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Oscar Peterson recorded a remarkable amount of albums during his career but, surprisingly, this was his first full record of unaccompanied piano solos. Some observers consider his MPS recordings to be his best (quite a few are collected in the four-CD reissue Exclusively for My Friends, including this one). The solo album features Peterson (freed ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $10.60!
22	Exclusively for My Friends [Box Set] (1992) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Oscar Peterson has stated that he feels his MPS recordings are his finest. That is quite a statement considering the huge amount of records that the pianist has produced through the past 50 years. This four-CD set reissues the music from six of his MPS LPs: Action, Girl Talk, The Way I Really Play, My Favorite Instrument, Mellow Mood, and Travelin ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $18.69!
23	An Oscar Peterson Christmas (1995) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Oscar Peterson takes it easy during his relaxed set. He had not completely recovered from his stroke but he was still an impressive pianist. Peterson, who is assisted by guitarist Lorne Lofsky, bassist David Young, and drummer Jerry Fuller, is joined by a 20-piece string section arranged and conducted by Rick Wilkins. The 14 holiday tunes (which ... see all copies from $7.25! new only from $16.74!
24	Oscar Peterson Plays the Duke Ellington Song Book [Compilation] (1999) more music like this by Oscar Peterson add to wishlist Twice in the 1950s, pianist Oscar Peterson recorded an extensive series of songbooks devoted to one composer. From 1952-53, Peterson, guitarist Barney Kessel and bassist Ray Brown were extensively documented; in 1959, the pianist joined up with Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen to repeat many of the programs (since the group had changed and the music ... see all copies from $5.74! new only from $10.44!
25	Reunion Blues (1971) more music like this by Oscar Peterson/Milt Jackson add to wishlist Pianist Oscar Peterson joins up with his old friends, vibraphonist Milt Jackson and bassist Ray Brown, in addition to his drummer of the period, Louis Hayes, for a particularly enjoyable outing. After a throwaway version of the Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," the all-star quartet performs Jackson's title cut, Benny Carter's ballad ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $10.60!
