"which clearly shows that Peterson's age limits his technical powers." - isn't that, without an attribution, a bit too judgemental for an encyclopedic article? - davidswelt

What does 'M%$# F*%$#' stand for? Did you know that Glenn Gould admired Mr. Peterson - in one of his letters he refers to it. One Canadian pianist to another.

Is there some reason the last edit removed the second and third paragraphs? I don;t care if you edit anonymously, but it would be nice to know why a major change like that has been made. John FitzGerald 01:28, 4 May 2005 (UTC)

Since no reason was supplied I have restored the two paragraphs. John FitzGerald 01:57, 13 May 2005 (UTC)


I got on this page redirected by a link to the oscar peterson trio. Since the trio had during several years fixed members and appeared as an entity, wouldn't it be appropiate to separate the discography for the albums from the Oscar Peterson Trio and from Oscar Peterson as soloist or with companion? Can do if I had some time :)

[edit] postage stamp

I have added the Oscar Peterson postage stamp to this page. It should be usuable under canadian crown copyright and even American Laws since this page is actually talking about the stamp. Dowew 18:27, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Videos

Hey Everyone!!!!

Go to youtube.com and see classic video of Oscar in action. Better hurry - too good to be true, and they'll probably take the videos down soon!!!
