Getz, Stan & The Oscar Peterson Trio
Stan Getz & The Oscar Peterson Trio (180 Gr)
Stan Getz and the Oscar Peterson Trio, released in 1958 on Verve Records, documents a rare meeting between two
contrasting but complementary jazz greats: the cool-toned tenor saxophonist Stan Getz and the hard-driving Oscar
Peterson Trio. Produced by Norman Granz and recorded in Hollywood in October 1957, the session finds Getz joining a
veteran rhythm section already regarded as one of the most cohesive in jazz: Peterson on piano, Herb Ellis on guitar,
and Ray Brown on bass. While Getz was often heard in more subdued or orchestrated contexts during this period, this
session highlights his command of bebop language and small-group swing. Peterson's trio, known for its drive and
responsiveness, adapts fluidly to Getz's tone and phrasing, yielding a session marked by relaxed interplay, rhythmic
clarity, and understated virtuosity. The Verve Vault series is always mastered from analog tapes and pressed on 180g
vinyl at Optimal.
