• NEW COLLECTION OF COLORED CLASSIC LPs • LIMITED EDITION AN LP THAT PUTS IN EVIDENCE THE PERFECTION OF THE PETERSON/BROWN/ THIGPEN TRIO!
“Although the repertoire on this LP by the Oscar Peterson Trio (with bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen) is fairly typical (with such veteran standards as ‘C Jam Blues’, ‘Bags’ Groove’, ‘Easy Does It’ and ‘I Got It Bad’), Peterson and his sidemen sound fairly inspired. Actually the highpoints are the final two selections: Duke Ellington’s ‘Band Call’ and the original version of O.P.’s ‘Hymn to Freedom’. This album gives one a definitive look at the 1960s Oscar Peterson Trio.” - Scott Yanow PERSONNEL: OSCAR PETERSON - (piano) RAY BROWN - (bass) ED THIGPEN - (drums) Radio Recorders, Hollywood, December 16, 1962.
