    Thanks for the compliment. I totally immersed myself in Jazz since a fairly early age, after I felt I saturated my ear with what is now called 'classic rock' before they called it that. That's all . Have a great weekend!

    nice!!! I grew up on death metal, but been listening to 'everything' my whole life. When it comes down to it, there are very few of 'the greats'!! buggin me now cos I cant find who played bass, dosnt even say on the actual sleeve, but its from this https://www.discogs.com/George-Shearing-Quintet-Strolling-With-George-Shearing/release/3123052

    Wow, that's crazy, I just looked it up on Wikipedia, and they don't even list Strolling in his discography!

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Shearing

    Considering it was released in 1965, it likely was John Levy, his bassist and manager through the 1960's, now that I read up on it ;-)

    My pleasure! ...a bit of a learning experience for me too. I liked the Strolling vid on YT, it reminded me of Thelonius Monk's 'Well you Needn't', didn't think George went in that direction, but his career did span quite a bit ...

    Look forward to hearing more from you. Respect back at ya!
