Not to be confused with his album of the same title on the
Verve record label, this recording captures a live performance
from 1973 made by the Oscar Peterson trio consisting of Joe
Pass on guitar and Niels-Henning ╪rsted Pederson on bass. The
set (played at the London House in Chicago) showcases
Peterson's extraordinary technique and talent for the blues.
The first track, "Blues Etude", presents a romping version of
the standard twelve-bar form that highlights Peterson's
ambidextrous technical facility and excellent stride ability.
The next two tunes on the album include a lengthy but soulful
take of "Chicago Blues" and an inspired version of "Easy
Listening Blues." "Come Sunday" presents guitar virtuoso Joe
Pass's reflective touch to the classic Ellington standard.
Played unaccompanied, the track also reveals Pass's seminal
solo concept. "Secret Love" serves as a buoyant closer to a
classic performance in the annals of jazz.
Though often overlooked by most jazz listeners, "The Trio" is
certainly one Oscar Peterson's best albums, due in no small
part to the support of sidemen Pederson and Pass. This album is
essential to the record collection of both connoisseur and
casual listener alike. Highly recommended.
