O’s Notes: Oliver Jones is Canada’s second pianist treasure alongside Oscar Peterson. Nearing 80 years old, Jones continues thrilling audiences with his longstanding trio including ric Lagacé (b) and Jim Doxas (d). Just For My Lady features guest violinist Josée Aidans. Together they build on Jones’ legacy and a star jazz entertainer performing a dozen tunes. Six are Oliver’s originals and six are freshly arranged classics. Among the best were “The Saskatchewan Suite”, “The Windmills of Your Mind” and “Josée’s Blues”.
