Our Take
Oscar Peterson, the virtuoso jazz pianist, is no stranger to tackling iconic songbooks, and his latest venture into the realm of Cole Porter is a delightful romp through some of the legendary composer's most beloved tunes. Opening with the jaunty "Anything Goes," Peterson sets the tone for the album with his signature blend of technical prowess and playful charm. His fingers dance across the keys with an effortless grace, breathing new life into classics like "I Get a Kick Out of You" and "Night and Day." Throughout the album, Peterson's bandmates - Ray Brown on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums - provide a solid foundation for his intricate improvisations, showcasing their own impeccable musicianship alongside the maestro himself. The chemistry between the trio is undeniable, creating a tight-knit unit that effortlessly weaves together intricate melodies and infectious rhythms. Standout tracks include the sultry "Love for Sale," where Peterson's delicate touch brings out the melancholy beauty of Porter's lyrics, and the toe-tapping "You're the Top," which showcases his boundless energy and enthusiasm. In conclusion, Oscar Peterson's take on the Cole Porter songbook is a joyous celebration of one of the great American songwriters, delivered with the skill and flair that only a jazz legend like Peterson could provide. This album is a must-listen for any fan of classic jazz or the timeless melodies of Cole Porter. So pour yourself a glass of scotch, sit back, and let the music carry you away into a world of sophistication and swing. Cheers to Oscar Peterson, the king of cool.
