Introducing another timeless jazz masterpiece:
Hello Herbie
(1970) by The
Oscar Peterson Trio
with
Herb Ellis,
the legendary guitarist who played with the likes of Jimmy Dorsey, Stan Getz, Dizzy
Gillespie and Ella Fitzgerald, just to name a few. Ellis was a permanent member of Peterson's trio from 1953-58, while it was featuring a guitar but no drums - one or even the greatest jazz combo
of the 1950s. Rediscover the magic of this timeless album where Ellis is joining Peterson and his trio again with
Sam Jones
on bass and
Bobby Durham
on drums. With Peterson's incredible skill,
Ellis thoughtful playing and a more than solid foundation in Durham and Brown this album showcases exceptional artists at their very best. Both, Ellis and Peterson feed of each other and
the album's fusion of playful interplay, together with nuanced arrangements and combined with the AAA remaster by Grammy-nominated mastering engineer Christoph Stickel, delivers an immersive experience.
The album includes a scan of the original master tape box and new liner notes by jazz journalist Scott Yanow.
