Our Take

The latest collaboration between jazz legends Oscar Peterson, Billy Taylor, and Shelly Manne is a delightful reimagining of the classic musical "My Fair Lady." From the moment you press play, you are transported to a dimly lit jazz club, where the smooth piano melodies of Peterson mix effortlessly with Taylor's nuanced arrangements and Manne's impeccable drumming.

Each track on the album is a masterclass in jazz interpretation, as the trio breathes new life into familiar tunes like "I Could Have Danced All Night" and "On the Street Where You Live." Peterson's virtuosic piano playing shines throughout, with Taylor's impeccable timing and Manne's infectious energy keeping the momentum going.

One standout track is their rendition of "Get Me to the Church on Time," which starts off slow and sultry before building to a rousing crescendo that will have you tapping your feet and singing along. The chemistry between the three musicians is undeniable, and it is clear that they are having a blast reinterpreting these beloved songs in their own unique style.

Overall, "My Fair Lady In Jazz" is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado or lover of musical theatre. Peterson, Taylor, and Manne have created a truly special album that showcases their incredible talent and creativity. So grab a cocktail, sit back, and let the music sweep you away to a bygone era of jazz sophistication and style. Cheers to these jazz greats for bringing a fresh perspective to a timeless classic.
