oscar peterson & count basie – 16 oct 1974, grosser saal der arbeiterkammer, graz, austria

it’s been a busy month, so i haven’t posted much.  in fact, another few days, and september would have been a complete washout here.  but things seems to be calming down a bit, and it’s a friday, so here’s something that should please.  on dime, the seeder ‘ladyface57’ said that there was a soundboard version “which originates from a cassette recording in mono.  this recording comes from a recent radio re-broadcast with better sound and in stereo.”
