Any fan of Oscar Peterson is a friend of mine. He was a great man. I suspect very strongly that he knew quite a bit about band in a box. There is a connection between PG music and OP, and his note for note transcriptions are marketed by pg music with his 'endorsement'.

I admired him for continuing even when a stroke took away one hand. I saw him play with one hand and I'll never be able to do 1/10 of what he could if I had 10 hands. I remind myself of his perseverance whenever I get down.
