Famed British-born jazz piano virtuoso George Shearing, who overcame blindness to become a worldwide jazz star, and who is best remembered for such recordings as "Lullaby of Birdland" and "September In The Rain," passed away from congestive heart failure on Monday in Manhattan at the age of 91.
Here's a short film from many years ago, quite likely the early 1950s of the George Shearing Quintet playing "Conception."
