Art played out of tempo a lot. Oscar played in tempo better tahn Art. Improvisation is a different thing. Some people have to write the music out first. Other people improvise with good time better than others. Music is has multiple aspects and all players have some strenghts and some weaknesses. No one person can do all things well. Andre is no doubt a better transcriber than Oscar. Andre plays with good feeling. He communcates well. Basie knows what to do and when to do it.
There will never be another Oscar Peterson.

@Flextones That's true if you listen to some of his extremely fast song closely, you'll realize he overlaps some of his right hand notes sometimes.
