Oscar Peterson - Exclusively for My Friends

For the first time, the legendary recording sessions the Oscar Peterson Trio made in the living room of the legendary German jazz label MPS founder Hans Georg Brunner-Schwer are released in an 8 CD box set. The collection combines six original releases with two collections of "Lost Tapes" released here for the first time. Painstakingly re-mastered, the analog atmosphere of the living room of the jazz-loving millionaire and record label owner is made palpable with these sessions that showcase the genius of Peterson in a rare performing environment. Included in the box set is a 60 page booklet containing interviews with Brunner-Schwer's son Andreas and the music journalist Siegfried Schmidt-Joos who provide first-hand insight into the atmosphere in Brunner-Schwer's Black Forest villa.
