Product Description:
Personnel: Count Basie, Oscar Peterson (acoustic & electric pianos); John Heard (bass); Louie Bellson (drums).
Recorded at Group IV Recording Studios, Los Angeles, California on September 20, 1977. Includes original liner notes by Benny Green.
Digitally remastered by Joe Tarantino (Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
Recorded three years after their first full album together, this second encounter between Count Basie and Oscar Peterson on twin pianos (this time with a quartet) is as strong as the original, alternating standards with blues. Both Peterson and Basie have one number apiece on electric piano, making this album historic as well as quite musical. ~ Scott Yanow
