What a loss. Rememeber seeing him years ago and watching him caress the ivories was pure bliss. A great loss will be truly missed by real music fans.

It is a great loss but 82 years is a great run considering he had been playing jazz since he was 20. Of what I’ve heard my favorite work of his is “oscar peterson trio playing with Clark Terry” (1964) but his catalogue is extraordinary in size and range so I’ve always been too scared to pick any of his albums after 1965.

This really put a damper on my Christmas. I couldn’t make it to a show he played here a few months ago and now I’m devastated.
