This outstanding DVD presents a complete and previously unissued live 1974 performance by two jazz giants: Oscar Peterson and Count Basie. Oscar Peterson plays a couple of pieces alone and then presents some amazing duets with Danish bassist Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen. Basie plays a wonderful set with his big band which at that time included such celebrated soloists as Jimmy Forrest Al Grey and Curtis Fuller plus singer Big Joe Turner who makes a special guest appearance. But the true climax of this concert recorded at the Prague Jazz Festival on November 8 1974 comes when Peterson calls Basie to the stand and both enjoy themselves having a friendly conversation with two pianos.
