Recorded during their creative peak in 1964 (5 years into their collaboration), this previously unheard and unreleased live performance is destined to become a fan
Vinyl Edition favourite from the Oscar Peterson vaults. In his memoir Peterson reflects on the dedication that Ray and Ed brought to group:


"In addition to our trio rehearsals, therefore, Ray would call his own rehearsals in
his or Ed's room and they would simply practice 'time.' They created a flexible and
multi-faceted rhythmical language that they could apply to any musical statement
I might make and enhance any direction I might choose. In short, they practiced
all the possibles." - Oscar Peterson
