Peterson recorded as an accompanist for many other stars, and also as the leader of his trio, which by 1959 consisted of Ray Brown on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums. This is the formation of the Oscar Peterson Trio heard on this homage to Harry Warren (1893-1981) and Vincent Youmans (1898-1946). These recordings derive from a series of intense sessions during which Peterson and his band taped many different songbooks by the most renowned American composers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32104597028961,"sku":"8436559462952","price":14.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_2089387_1042358.jpg?v=1718115260","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/8436559462952-plays-the-harry-warren-vincent-youmans-song-book-180g","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
