Oscar Peterson Trio - Another Day / vinyl LP

Another Day is an impressive testimony to the extraordinary artistry of Oscar Peterson on piano, accompanied by the outstanding musicality of Jiri Mraz on bass and Ray Price on drums. The Peterson-Mraz-Price trio lasted for about a year, recording both Another Day and Walking The Line during November 10-13, 1970. The performances on Another Day show that this overlooked version of the Oscar Peterson Trio could hold its own with its more famous predecessors.

The album captures the trio’s extraordinary synergy and enchants audiences with its timeless compositions and captivating improvisation. It includes interpretations of well-known titles such as ‘Greensleeves’, ‘Too Close For Comfort’ and ‘All The Things You Are’, one of the most popular Peterson titles, as well as lesser-known numbers and the original composition ‘Blues For Martha’.

Remastered with the highest precision and using purely analogue techniques by the renowned, Grammy-nominated mastering engineer Christoph Stickel, this release marks the long-awaited revival of a jazz classic.

Recorded in 1970 in the studio of MPS founder Hans Georg Brunner-Schwer, this reissue gives Another Day the attention that this brilliant album certainly deserves.
