"Famous Big Bands perform their charts for swing fans years after year, concert after concert, as close to the original as possible. My recordings here, with the exception of Just Like 'Fats', are an attempt to accomplish the same: to capture and reproduce great performances done by great musicians. I hope you will enjoy my tribute to two of the greatest jazz pianists of all time, Oscar Peterson and Thomas 'Fats' Waller." -Jim Martinez from the liner notes.
