Very sad to read that. A real legend, that's for sure.

Thanks for posting this, I hadn't seen the news. The video is of the trio with Herb Ellis and Ray Brown which was a great one. Sad to lose the great jazz players one by one but their legacy is all those they inspired.

BTW, Ray Brown is the guy who discovered Diana Krall up in Nanaimo, BC and there is more than a little Oscar Peterson influence in her playing.
