This 1959 release from Oscar Peterson is one of several albums he recorded in the 1950s dedicated to specific composers. On this collection Peterson revisits several of the Harold Arlen songs he included on a previous album years earlier, in a trio configuration here backed by bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen.

The album demonstrate Peterson’s complete mastery of the works of Harold Arlen. Oscar is such a monster piano player that he does not need anyone to ‘comp’ while he is soloing, he does that as well … will be very welcome by all the Peterson fans and let us hope that anyone not familiar with his past work will take the opportunity to catch up.
