Release Date July 01, 1988
If I was granted one chance to travel back in time, I'd be sitting in the audience at a Tormé/Shearing gig. I think the collection of Mel & George recordings on Concord should have a mention in any history of 20th century music. Two artists, and they really are artists, at the top of their game with boundless enthusiasm for 'The American Songbook'. One of the things I've always loved about these guys is that they seem unable to play one song at a time - one or two more usually sneak in and spotting the lines stolen from other songs is great fun. Of the half-dozen albums they made together, this is one of the more informal, and the recording quality is excellent. Every number is top-notch, but the opening mix of 'Just One of Those Things' ...

Release Date July 01, 1988
When Mel Torme and George Shearing, friends who recorded together often, performed at the Paul Masson Mountain Winery in 1987, each was at his peak. Torme was then sixty-two years old, but his voice had never been better--he never smoked (unusual in this industry), and his voice was mellow and mature, even better at sixty-two than it was at thirty-two. Shearing, at age sixty-eight, having signed with Concord Records in 1979, was enjoying a renaissance as a jazz pianist, making stunning recordings with Carmen McRae, Peggy Lee, and Mel Torme, among others.
In this vibrant live performance, both Torme and Shearing are relaxed, more interested in communicating with the audience and each other than in special effects and pyrotechnics. ... Read More:

Release Date July 16, 1991
Mel and George doing their usual act, so if you've got any of the other M&G CDs, you'll know what to expect. That isn't to say that the music is anything less than superb,however. The Ellington medley is particularly good, and the cicadas in the background of this live outdoor recording at the Paul Masson Winery lend the whole set a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
