Les McCann has died. 88 years.
He found a good living just on the edge of (my) jazz. Also a well regarded photographer.
Giving this a twirl on Qobuz. Lots of funky stuff there as well.

Guilty but a good reminder to delve. 
Probably very refreshing but I’m teetotal. 
Billy was never a delicate pianist.
Gerry sounds a bit out of puff.
But a pleasant romp by two elderly gentlemen.
On Qobuz.

This appeared on my YouTube feed, so I thought I’d share here. I love Rick’s enthusiasm for this, plus he’s right, the absolute genius of Oscar Peterson to have the ability to play in all these different styles when asked about them, is incredible.

I stumbled upon this interview some months ago, what a great interaction between Oscar and the presenter. Rick does add even more enthusiasm, it’s contagious.
