Francois Blais 09-13-2001, 09:13 PM He's a great player; both jazz and classical. Great tone and intonation, solid accompanist and nice solist. For those interested, he uses Thomastik Dominants. relman 09-13-2001, 11:25 PM have you heard his "Two by Two" albums? just beautiful...:) Adrian Cho 12-14-2001, 10:42 PM I have the three CD set of Two by Two and it is certainly great stuff. Adrian (in Ottawa) Bijoux 12-15-2001, 12:09 AM Great musician, definetily one of my influences, I've been listening to him since the early 80's, and whenevr he's in Denver-CO I help him out taking him from one place to another, funny how some of thew greatest musicians are so humble! I guess they don't have to prove anything to anybody, they're above all that crap. Don Higdon 12-15-2001, 07:13 AM Very enjoyable player. And Two By Two is a great concept. I'd gag if I had to listen to an entire CD of Peterson anonymous0726 12-15-2001, 10:00 AM Peterson? Don Higdon 12-15-2001, 10:22 AM I thought I'd hook somebody with that.:) In the late 50's, early 60's, Miles just totally dissed Oscar in Down Beat. I thought he was nuts. 30 years later, I began to understand what Miles was talking about. Just too relentless. Bill Charlap can be very busy, but with more imagination and variety (for me). I won't listen to OP all the way through. That's just me. anonymous0726 12-15-2001, 10:33 AM There would be a few reasons to listen (and not to listen) to OP. To his benefit, you know who it is by the second note. |
