5.0 out of 5 stars A great example of the Trio's superlative playing., 11 Jul 2001

By A Customer

This is one of my most favourite albums. The liner notes, both the original unacredited notes but presumbly by producer Jim Davis, and Phil Bailey's reissue notes, are much what you would expect on an album from one of jazz's greatest trios. Pure extascy. Both speak of Peterson's incredible virtuosity, and the seamlessness of the trio. Both compliments are certainly deserved, but the excesive laudation does get in the way of appreciatinq a truly fantastic recording.

That's not to say that the music is not well above par. It certainly is. They even brinq a new face to the Girl From Ipanema. The solo voices are also very well developed. In each tune the soloist actually has something to say - whether it be Peterson, Brown or Thigpen - and the remaining players don't hold him back or try to dominate. Its not an understatement to describe "We Get Requests" as exhibiting the famed synchronicity of the Oscar Peterson Trio's live performances.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peterson is a comic genius!!, 3 Feb 2006

By	Mr. Adrian Pollard (Worthing, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

From the opening strum of the piano strings in Corcovado this album just feels right. Wanna know what swing is - this opening track will explain all. There is not a duffer on it, but I will mention what I think are the stand out tracks.
"You look good to me" - lovely interplay between the musicians, subtle brushwork from Thigpen and Browns bowed bass is an interesting variation at the beginning and end of the track.
"D & E" - a friend and I were listening to this one evening(hey Cokey!) and as the opening progressed we looked at each other and burst out laughing(no jokes honest!), such was our joy at how tight and groovy the playing was. Now I can't promise that you will laugh out loud, but you will have to be dead from the waist upwards not to enjoy this - and even if you were, look down and you'll still find your feet tappin', that's how good it is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully fantastic!, 19 Jun 2008

By	Louis/Imogen/Dad (England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: We Get Requests (Audio CD)

We Get Requests is a 'Diet' version of Oscar Peterson. The majority of his albums 'wow' the listener and, sometimes, they are left unconnected and overwhelmed when swamped by Oscar's furious techical ability. Not in this album, however.

If you are new to the world of Oscar Peterson, or perhaps feel as though you would like to explore a different, more sensitive side to his playing then this album is perfect for you. In all the tracks Oscar is contained. He never shifts into a high gear. He seems somewhat limited. But this is all to good effect.

The album is addictve: it is so easy to listen to. The Trio is performing as a unit to the highest of levels. Brown and Thigpen are so tight in the background that they take Peterson's piano to a new dimension. It is unusual, especially for Oscar, that he doesn't explore the piano AT ALL - his left hand provides a chordal accompaniment and his right hand remains in the upper octaves of the piano, but this only increases the 'catchiness' and lightness of the pieces.

Quiet Night of Quiet Stars* is a tremendous start to the album - I personally think Peterson is at his best with Latin/Bossa Nova pieces, and this is proved with his light, yet so effective, playing on The Girl from Ipanema. You Look Good to Me is another delicate yet poignant piece - it demonstrates the Trio's teamwork brilliantly. The album is full of delights and is applicable for all scenarios: background music, personal listening etc.

Overall this is a well crafted and sensitive album. Although Peterson is restrained throughout and rarely demonstrates his full ability he plays for the listener and provides them with a feast of musical enjoyment. An album to acquire at all costs.

*A transcription of 'Quiet Night of Quiet Stars (Corcavado)' from this album is availible in the book 'Oscar Peterson Trios' by Hal Leonard.
