Skol is a 1979 live album by Oscar Peterson, accompanied by Stéphane Grappelli.
Review by Scott Yanow
Pianist Oscar Peterson and violinist Stephane Grappelli meet up on this Scandinavian concert. The "backup" crew (guitarist Joe Pass, bassist Niels Pedersen and drummer Mickey Roker) is not too bad either. In addition to a closing blues (which is highlighted by tradeoffs from Peterson and Grappelli), the quintet performs five veteran standards with creativity and swing.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El pianista Oscar Peterson y el violinista Stéphane Grappelli se encuentran en este concierto escandinavo. El equipo de "backup" (el guitarrista Joe Pass, el bajista Niels Pedersen y el baterista Mickey Roker) tampoco está mal. Además de un blues de cierre (que se destaca por los intercambios de Peterson y Grappelli), el quinteto interpreta cinco estándares veteranos con creatividad y swing.
