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.
