Title:
Night Train
Personnel: Oscar Peterson (piano),
Ray Brown (bass), Ed Thigpen (drums).
Recorded: 1962
Label: Verve
Comments: As a child prodigy in Canada,
Oscar Peterson won many piano competitions before he stormed the
jazz scene in the early 50's. Notable for his amazing proficiency,
Oscar's trios have dazzled audiences for over 40 years. This CD
is a near perfect example of one of his most popular trios, featuring
the incomparable Ray Brown on bass and the effervescent Ed Thigpen
on drums.

Title:
Oscar Peterson and Roy Eldridge
Personnel: Oscar Peterson (piano),
Roy Eldridge (trumpet).
Recorded: 1974
Label: Verve
Comments: Oscar released a series
of duo albums with trumpet, including this one, in addition to
CD's with Dizzy Gillespie, Harry "Sweets" Edison, Clark
Terry, and Jon Faddis, all around the same time. All are fascinating
recordings, but this one sticks out as Oscar plays organ on a
few tracks!
