Tin Tin Deo

Well, let's move forward a bit to the year 1968, when Peterson made a series of recordings with the producer Hans-Georg Brunischwer with his, uh, then regular trio, which was Ray Brown on the bass and Ed Thigpen on the drums.

This is "Tin Tin Deo," composed by, uh, Chano Pozo.

[jazz music]Yes, "Tin Tin Deo", yet another song that showcased, uh, Peterson's amazing manual dexterity at the keyboard.

I once sat for about an hour and a half just a meter or so from the end of the keyboard during a set by Oscar Peterson, surely one of the most riveting musical experiences of my life, as I'm sure you can imagine.

Peterson's, uh, basic concert and indeed recording format was, of course, the piano trio with bass and drums, but he frequently added another instrument to inject more variety, uh, into his output.
