Oscar Moore • Presenting Oscar Moore with Leroy Vinegar

 

Biography by Scott Yanow
An excellent guitarist influenced after 1939 by Charlie Christian, Oscar Moore was an invaluable part of the Nat King Cole Trio during 1937-1947, appearing on virtually all of Cole's records during the period. He also recorded with Lionel Hampton, Art Tatum (1941), the Capitol Jazzmen, and Lester Young. Unfortunately, Moore's post-Cole career was not that successful. He played with his brother Johnny Moore in the Three Blazers from 1947 to the mid-'50s (the group declined in popularity after pianist/singer Charles Brown left) and he recorded three records for Verve and Tampa during 1953-1954, but then was largely outside of music with the exception of a 1965 Cole tribute album.

Biografía de Scott Yanow
Excelente guitarrista influenciado después de 1939 por Charlie Christian, Oscar Moore fue una parte inestimable del Nat King Cole Trio durante 1937-1947, apareciendo en prácticamente todos los discos de Cole durante el período. También grabó con Lionel Hampton, Art Tatum (1941), los Capitol Jazzmen y Lester Young. Desgraciadamente, la carrera de Moore después de Cole no tuvo tanto éxito. Tocó con su hermano Johnny Moore en los Three Blazers desde 1947 hasta mediados de los años 50 (el grupo decayó en popularidad tras la marcha del pianista/cantante Charles Brown) y grabó tres discos para Verve y Tampa durante 1953-1954, pero luego se mantuvo en gran medida al margen de la música con la excepción de un álbum de homenaje a Cole de 1965.
