''Very Tall'' is a 1961 album by the jazz pianist Oscar Peterson and his trio, with the vibraphonist Milt Jackson. This album marked the first recorded collaboration between Peterson and Jackson, they would later appear on the albums; ''Reunion Blues'' (1971), ''The Milt Jackson Big 4'' (1975), ''Ain't But a Few of Us Left'' (1981) and ''Two of the Few'' (1983) together. ==Reception== The initial ''Billboard'' review from January 27, 1962 praised Peterson and Jackson's "great sense of swing" and described the material as "a bit out of the ordinary", before concluding that album was "Strong jazz wax." ''Down Beat'' magazine jazz critic Leonard Feather gave the album four stars in his April 12, 1963 review and stated: "This was an alliance as successful as it was logical. Peterson and Jackson have far more in common musically than their regular contexts might imply."〔 Scott Yanow on Allmusic.com gave the album four stars out of five. Yanow described the pairing of Peterson and Jackson as "...so logical that it is surprising it did not occur five years earlier...Fortunately O.P. and Bags would meet up on records many times in the future (particularly during their Pablo years) but this first effort is a particularly strong set."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Very Tall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
