From the Canadian Broadcasting site, here are a bunch of old clips of Peterson with some interviews and him playing when he was really young: http://archives.cbc.ca/IDD-1-74-391/people/oscar_peterson/ And more: http://archives.cbc.ca/IDCC-1-74-391/people/oscar_peterson/

Yes, thanks a lot. I'm going broadband soon so will then be able to download better.
I've been to two Oscar Peterson concerts in England in the 1960's amd 70's. He was classically trained and his technique shows that great benefit.

I can't believe I did this, but it probably makes me a stereotypical white guy, but I always pictured Oscar Pterson as being white...lol...then I saw his pictures from this link. I guess I should have known, most of the great jazz artists and composers are black...lol..
I feel stupid.
