Oscar Peterson has thoroughly assimilated not just every piano style that preceded him but every ensemble idiom as well: swinging big bands, gospel, European classical, and of course, the blues. Having mastered all of this Peterson found the standard piano trio the perfect vehicle for exploring all of these types of music. In this classic 1963 LP, the crowning achievement in his greatest year, Peterson doesn't just explore these styles - he conquers them.

5 stars Downbeat Magazine! — 4.5 stars AllMusic!
