Oscar Peterson's Finest Hour by Oscar Peterson on CD
Verve's Finest Hour collection of Oscar Peterson's work compiles 60 minutes of career highlights, including "The Astaire Blues," "Work Song," "Young and Foolish," and "Tenderly." Though it's by no means a definitive compilation of Peterson's music, it does provide a worthwhile overview of some of his best moments. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
