What a great find!-and then with our Niels Henning Ørsted Pedersen on double bass. Those two guys has made some good things together over the years. NHØP is sadly not around anymore. Another great album with Oscar Peterson:

I agree with you. NHØP was one of the most jazz bassists. He was a solid partner for the great Oscar Peterson. Grappelli and Joe Venuti have been the story of jazz violin.
