“With Ray Brown on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums, Oscar Peterson reworks Cole Porter and says something original and distinctive. Highlights include ‘Love for Sale‘, ‘Night and Day‘, and ‘I Love Paris‘.” – Ron Wynn, AllMusic

“As with Ella, Porter seems the ideal source for Peterson, an unparalleled alliance of verbal and musical dexterity that constantly challenges the improviser who has to find musical equivalents for those glittering rhymes.” – PENGUIN JAZZ TO JAZZ

“The chemistry of this trio gives the impression that behind the sounds there is just one single mind. This is a reference album.”- JAZZ MAGAZINE
