[Dixielandjazz] George Shearing In Dixieland

[Steve barbone]

Colin Toomer (lurker from New Zealand) and I were discussing this album off
list. I've not heard it hence this inquiry to list mates, and a request for
comments.

Has anybody on list heard this album? Please comment, especially about the
treatment of Blue Monk, Desafinado, Lullaby of Birdland and Take Five.
Sounds like it might be fun to do these tunes. (BSJB does Blue Monk but not
the others)

Cheers,
Steve
