THE WAY I REALLY PLAY by Oscar Peterson
THE WAY I REALLY PLAY by Oscar Peterson
Peterson‘s new and permanent trio line-up emerged on the third album in the MPS series with Sam Jones and Bobby Durham. „The best trio that I‘ve ever had“ said the Canadian, and raved about the intuitively developed feeling of togetherness. It‘s fitting then that this third volume is entitled The Way I Really Play. It‘s apparent on these recordings that Jones and Durham sit back and serve as an ideal surface for Peterson‘s piano playing, but that they can also step out with solo moments. The opening track „Waltzing is Hip“ captures a refined alternation between 3/4 and 4/4, as well as an exuberant drum solo. Peterson shines with a complete reinvention of Duke Ellington‘s „Satin Doll“, both thoughtful and harmonically rich. With „Sandy‘s Blues“, the protagonist distinguishes
himself as a writer, and he dedicates this splendid, ornamented blues to his wife. „Noreen‘s Nocturne“ is likewise from his pen, but far from being a nocturnal serenade, the trio blazes its way through a thoroughly exuberant five minutes. On „Alice in Wonderland“, made famous by Miles Davis, Peterson furnishes proof of his swing artistry. And as a final dramatized masterpiece, Gershwin‘s „Love is Here to Stay“, which follows along a magnificent arc of suspense between free lyricism and a gripping mood.
