Deep Velvet (1965). In this album, the Shearing piano and Quintet are the first time set against a choir of twelve woodwinds, and the effect is both beautiful and strikingly new - a refreshing caress for the tasteful music that sets the stage for love.
Old Gold And Ivory (1964). Here is Tchaikovsky by Shearing, Grieg by Shearing. Chopin by Shearing. Here are variations on a theme of Paganini by Shearing. And Shearing-interpreted music by Falls, Lecuona, Rimsky-Korsakoff, Cyril Scott and Gabriel Faure…

The Jazz Club series is an attractive addition to the Verve catalogue. With it's modern design and popular choice of repertoire, the Jazz Club is not only opened for Jazz fans, but for everyone that loves good music.
For a long stretch of time in the 1950s and early '60s, George Shearing had one of the most popular jazz combos on the planet - so much so that, in the usual jazz tradition of distrusting popular success, he tended to be underappreciated. Shearing's main claim to fame was the invention of a unique quintet sound, derived from a combination of piano, vibraphone, electric guitar, bass, and drums…

EAC Rip | FLAC (tracks, cue, log, booklet) - 2.29 GB
7:46:39 | Bop, Contemporary Jazz, Ragtime, Big Band, Swing, Hard Bop, Cool Jazz, Latin Jazz | Label: Smithsonian Folkways

This lavish 111-track, six-CD box set attempts the impossible – to tell the whole story of jazz. Essentially an updated version of 1987’s out of print The Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz, this expanded anthology is wonderfully diverse in the story it tells, with tracks from jazz artists across the stylistic board, from Stan Kenton to Sun Ra, Bill Evans to Chick Corea, Louis Armstrong to Cecil Taylor, with stops everywhere in between, and any conceivable branch of the genre is represented by at least one selection. That’s the good news. The bad news is that whole phases of jazz’s complicated history are treated like three-minute whistle stops so that the train can stay on schedule and on track. That said, it’s an impressive survey, and wonderfully assembled and annotated.
