[Dixielandjazz] George Shearing in Dixieland

[Robert Newman]

Yes, Bob -- It was released on a Concord CD in 1989.   Good band.   Davern 
(cl), Peplowski (ts) Fuller (dr), Masso, Swanson, Vache' (co).   EXACTLY 20 
years ago.  Interesting choice of tunes -- eclectic, that's why.   And 
comfortable for the players.
