Title: How sad!
Review: Who is this schlemiel Alyn Shipton? This is the most pathetic recording I have ever purchased. Does the producer think his travails in producing this album justify its release? For the record, I was a friend of Oscar Peterson and I admire most of Itzhak Perlman's recordings. But this release is a limp travesty and TELARC executives Robert Woods and Elaine Martone should be ashamed for allowing this to be released. Following Oscar's stroke he could only use his right (and remarkable) right hand. Compare, if you will, "On the Trail" on Digital at Montreaux to understand the lack of fire on this recording or even Oscar's recording of "Makin Whoopee" in his duet with Grappelli. The truth is that even with Ray Brown, Herb Ellis and Grady Tate, Perlman cannot swing and Oscar is sadly without his left hand.
