There's another tremendous swedish guitarist with a similir name, Georg Wadenius, who has played with everyone from Blood sweat and tears, paul simon, roberta flack, steely dan, who you should really interview. He's got a lot of stories to tell (he's also the one who inspired Benson to start scat-singing while playing)

Well... Oscar Peterson trio is for me one of the most important milestones in music history - such a pleasure to hear some stories from backstage :) and Mr Wakenius is absolutely marvellous! Thank you!
