Juno Award Nominee 2009 - Traditional Jazz Album of the Year
This new CD is well balanced between ballads and barnburners, Jones originals and standards like Misty and When I Fall in Love, the traditional Precious Lord and even Surrey with the Fringe on Top. Having caught his “second wind” and showing no signs slowing down, let’s hope that the seventy-four-year-old pianist decides that “Second Time Around” is just a new beginning.
excerpt from Wholenote Magazine, July 2008
Pianist Oliver Jones is one of Canada’s finest musicians, his career intertwining with the proud history of jazz that’s flourished in his native city (Montreal) and beyond. Jones’ professional achievements – too numerous to mention here in their entirety – include the Order of Canada; the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award, for lifetime artistic achievement; and several Juno and Félix awards. He’s recorded with such international luminaries as Oscar Peterson, Clark Terry, Ray Brown, Ed Thigpen, Herb Ellis & Red Mitchell.
