Yeah, Shearing was a great jazz pianist, and a fine accompanist as well. Sorry to hear he passed away. Just yesterday I was listening to a wonderful live recording of Mel Torme accompanied by the George Shearing quartet. It's a really clean, natural recording with an amazing bassist as well. The CD is in my mega-changer and a pain to locate, but I can check the label if you're interested. Torme and Shearing are at the peak of their abilities on this CD.
