The partnership between Hans Georg Brunner-Schwer and Oscar Peterson grew after the legendary Exclusively For My Friends, recordings. Nine albums followed that remarkable recording. Walking The Line came about during the middle of this period of their work. An added bonus to this vinyl release is Hubertus Malls fantastic drawing of Peterson featured on the cover. Peterson is joined by bassist Georg Mraz and drummer Ray Price for this release which is bookended by two Cole Porter Classics, I Love You, and All of You. Each of the tracks in between is a masterpiece in its own right, especially the irresistible version of Rock of Ages.
