Girl Talk (also released as Oscar Peterson Plays for Lovers) is a 1968 studio album by jazz pianist Oscar Peterson, the second volume of his Exclusively for My Friends series. It was compiled from live studio sessions recorded between 1964 and 1966.
For AllMusic, critic Ken Dryden wrote, "The title track, an overlooked gem jointly written by Bobby Troup and Neal Hefti, finds the leader in a bluesy mood. The relaxed but jaunty treatment of 'Robbin's Nest' follows a powerful medley of 'I Concentrate on You' and 'Moon River' to wrap up this highly recommended session."[1]The Penguin Guide to Jazz included the album in its suggested "Core Collection".[2]
