While the latter utilised a big orchestra conducted by Russell Garcia, the first two albums were made in a small group format. And what an incredible small group! The Oscar Peterson Trio, featuring Herb Ellis, Ray Brown (who had been Ella's husband) and Buddy Rich (on the second album the drum chair was covered by Louie Bellson).
