You look good to me - Oskar Peterson Trio

Hi!

I just bought a vinyl copy of the album "We get requests" by the Oskar Peterson Trio. I know this record since I was a teenager and for me the solo OP plays here is one of the finest jazz solos ever recorded. OP uses rather few notes, has a perfect phrasing and creates an tremendous "dramatic arc" over the solo and takes it to almost "reliefing" climax. And yet another aspect is the bass by Ray Brown and the drums by Ed Thigpen that faciliate and support the solo so well.
