Oscar Peterson 1925-2007

[Chas]

Jazz great Oscar Peterson has passed on. Damn!! I had a chance to see him in Seattle last year and bailed.

Oh, well. C'est La Vie.

One of the true giants. He will be sorely missed.

Cheer up I lost the opportunity to see Ray Charles in Sydney 2 years ago and it happened to him as well....:rage: :rage:

He was one of the very best. When I think of his playing I think of the warmth and feeling that comes through no matter what he was playing; Ballads,blues,cool jazz,anything. I just got Stan Getz and the Oscar Peterson Trio last week...beautiful. R.I.P. Oscar Peterson.

Lord, they are all just dying off, aren't they? This makes me so sad. I have always really enjoyed his music.
