i just discovered Ben Paterson on youtube and really love his sound. Straight ahead, swinging. The guitar tone here is also really nice, acoustic sounding.
Tony Monaco once told me... if you want to get your audience's attention, play as low as you can, set the dynamics down and everyone will turn their heads to see what's going on in the stage.
Exquisite . Smooth....a pure delight for the ears...with a dash of night train...audience diggin' it! So am I ! Very complemented with superb guitar and bass.....would love to hear a lot more. Always hungry for great jazz trios these days. Thanks for the post.
I could listen all day to Oscar's version of this on "Exclusively for My Friends". So laid-back yet hard-swinging. Now I get to alternate between that take and this one. Can life get any better?
Love you guys oh lala ! Everyday yes you are my all time jazz pianist- ... wish I could see you live at the Bell Centre or Place Des Arts... Montreal !!!
Lieber Ben! Ich habe Oscar Peterson geliebt und dich libe ich auch, du füllst seine Fußstapfen sehr würdevoll aus und das mit deinem eigenen Charakter, Danke dafür!!!❤❤❤
I listen to your music daily... I need a dosage every day! When will you come to Montreal? I am an ardent admirer... I love your style of playing and I wish you the very best! With love, Elizabeth Di Blasio Montreal
This man had listened to all of them in the 30s 40s 50s and an exquisite distillate of those years is flowing out of his hands.. Beauty with capital B... Going to the Mezzrow a day he was playing was probably the best thing I have done in 2018!
