{"product_id":"affinity-verve-acoustic-sounds-series-1","title":"AFFINITY (VERVE ACOUSTIC SOUNDS SERIES)","description":"Affinity captures a studio session from September 1962 in Chicago, featuring Peterson on piano alongside his long-time trio partners Ray Brown (bass) and Ed Thigpen (drums). The album offers a refined selection of standards delivered with the assured interplay that defined the Peterson\/Brown\/Thigpen trio. Peterson's first recorded take on the Bill Evans classic \"Waltz For Debby\" is a lyrical, nuanced performance - and \"Gravy Waltz,\" (co-written by Ray Brown,) showcases the trio's rhythmic drive and subtle groove. As a whole, Affinity is a tasteful, well-crafted example of Peterson's work in the early 1960s - a strong trio recording that reflects his continued commitment to swing, subtlety, and ensemble balance, making it a valuable piece for any serious jazz collection. Verve's Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.","brand":"VERVE","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl","offer_id":52118605955352,"sku":"602478282140","price":41.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4484439-3530883.jpg?v=1780166282","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/affinity-verve-acoustic-sounds-series-1","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
