Oscar Peterson - Monitor Blues (Sounds of Yesteryear)

[tranemonk]

Does anybody know anything about this? Is Sound of Yesteryear a legit label that pays royalties to the family or this European public domain stuff? Or just a ripoff? I've seen a lot by that label but know nothing about them. Thanks.

Don't know, but IMO highly probable that it's a Euro-PD label. Also possibly CD-R instead of CD, if that matters.

I´m not a Peterson listener but the combination Roy Eldridge, Sonny Stitt sounds like a good idea.

I think Sounds of Yesteryear is basically a UK public domain label that now only issues overpriced CDRs. 

Here's an example they issued of a rare, long out of print limited edition 2 LP set:
