Volume six of the recordings of Oscar Peterson presented in chronological order, opens with two tracks showing a different aspect of the leader on record. Peterson's playing has influences of Nat "King" Cole but his admiration and parallels to Cole are much more evident on the vocal sides recorded at the very end of the session from February 26, 1952, all other tracks made that day are out on Classics 1362. Peterson never considered himself as a great vocalist but the present examples prove that he also excelled in this department. These tracks could easily fool experts into assuming the vocalist was indeed Cole himself ! Over the years Peterson only recorded a handful of vocals which is sad since he possesses such a natural, warming and charming voice. The following instrumentals were first issued on a series of LPs entitled Oscar Peterson Plays... Norman Granz seems to have liked the concept of collating tunes from the same composers into the albums - the "Song Book" - series of Ella Fitzgerald immediately comes to mind. However, according to the principles of Classics the tracks have not been grouped by composer but by the order in which they were recorded at the studio. To be continued...
