Oscar Peterson Plays Duke Ellington is an album by Canadian jazz pianist Oscar Peterson, of songs associated with Duke Ellington released in 1952 on Clef Records. Peterson re-recorded much of the music for his 1959 album Oscar Peterson Plays the Duke Ellington Songbook. I Got It Bad (and That Ain't Good)" (Paul Francis Webster) – 3:17. In a Mellow Tone" – 3:09. Just A-Sittin' and A-Rockin'" (Lee Gaines, Billy Strayhorn) – 3:45. Take the "A" Train" (Strayhorn) – 3:19.

Producer Norman Granz invited Oscar Peterson and his Trio to record a set of Ellington songs in 1952. Seven years later, they did it again-this time in stereo and with different interpretations and personnel. This CD combines two LPs devoted to the same Duke Ellington material recorded by different versions of the Oscar Peterson trio. The first is of particular interest. This is a double album that combines an early album titled Oscar Peterson Plays Duke Ellington that was recorded in Los Angeles for Mercury, and a later 1959 album titled Oscar Peterson Plays The Duke Ellington Song Book that was recorded in Chicago for Verve.
