Tracks carries a very emotional theme throughout the album. On the Italy charts, superstar Oscar Peterson’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. This disc has all of the essential Oscar Peterson classics. Smart music for smart people.
After about the third Child is Born listen through, I began to believe this song is Oscar Peterson’s essence. A great put together song. Oscar Peterson emotions are reflected through Django. The opening track Give Me the Simple Life is very much like you would expect from other albums. Oscar Peterson has astounded me with this amazing track. I believe If I Should Lose You is one of the most astounding, heartfelt songs ever written. Ja Da is a strong cut, one of many. Oscar Peterson offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. Little Jazz Exercise is one of the coolest songs Oscar Peterson has ever recorded.
