Cultural Facts: [14]
- Tuberculosis Took His Trumpet: Growing up in Montreal's Little Burgundy, young Oscar Peterson started on trumpet. A bout of tuberculosis around age seven left him unable to play it, so his railway porter father moved him to the piano. On this record he finally shares the stage with a trumpet.
- Granz Turned the Cab Around: In 1949 Norman Granz was riding to the Montreal airport when he heard a live radio broadcast of a pianist at the Alberta Lounge. He told the driver to turn around, went to the club, and soon brought Peterson to Carnegie Hall as a surprise guest. Granz produced this duo session 25 years later.
- Just Piano and Trumpet: Cut in London in November 1974 with no bass and no drums, this duet album won Dizzy Gillespie the Grammy for Best Jazz Performance by a Soloist. Granz had started Pablo Records the year before and named it after his friend Pablo Picasso.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
