Description:

Rare live performance by the Oscar Peterson Trio in Zurich, Switzerland, 1971. Niels Pedersen (b) and Lewis Hayes (ds) joined the trio for this "once in a lifetime" performance. World premiere previously unreleased recording! In 1971, Peterson toured with Niels-Henning Elsted Pedersen (b) and Lewis Hayes (ds), a rare trio formation that never performed together again. This is the world's first previously unreleased recording of the concert in Zurich, Switzerland, which they visited on the same tour. The title tune "On a Clear Day" is a popular song that was also included on the album "Girl Talk" released by MPS in 1966. It is a fun song to listen to and compare. It also includes plenty of drum and bass solos unique to live performances. Produced by Oscar Peterson's wife, Kelly Peterson, this is a good-tempered work in which you can enjoy Peterson's verses on all the songs.
