George Shearing..Thanks for the memories..

It went largely un-noticed but famed jazz pianist George Shearing passed away at age 91....most well known for "Lullaby of Birdland" and accompany duets with Mel Torme, Ella Fitgerald, Frank Sinatra, and other notable crooners, his music and style will be missed.
