Product Information

Pianist George Shearing is that rare thing, a European jazz musician who became a household name in the US, as a result of the "Shearing sound"-the recordings of his historic late 1940s quintet. Together with his unique "locked hands" approach to playing the piano, Shearing's quintet with guitar and vibraphone in close harmony to his own playing revolutionized small group jazz, and ensured that after seven years as Melody Maker's top British pianist, he achieved even greater success in America. His compositions have been recorded by everyone from Sarah Vaughan to Miles Davis, and his best known pieces include "Lullaby of Birdland," "She" and "Conception." His story is all the more remarkable because Shearing was born blind. His candid reminiscences include a behind the scenes experience of New York's 52nd Street in its heyday, as well as memories of a vast roll-call of professional colleagues that includes all the great names in jazz.

Reviews
Lullaby of Birdland, with all its pleasures, is to some extent the fruit of a collaboration between Shearing and the British jazz writer and broadcaster Alyn Shipton…Together they have produced a book which is well and tightly edited, which never bogs down in unnecessary detail or strays waywardly from the matters at hand, and in which Shearing consistently sounds like himself and not an edited version…The pages are suffused with warmth and good humor… January magazine, 03/04, "Together they [Shearing and Shipton] have produced a book that is tightly edited and true to the voice of its subject. Suffused with warmth and good humor…this is recommended for larger jazz collections."" -Library Journal", STitled after Shearing "s most famous composition, this book is written with a punning sense of humor “ a style that marks both Shearing "s private life and stage performances. He fills his books with tales of making music with some of the most important jazz artists of the 20th century. Shearing "s grace, charm, and humor are everywhere in this book, including the dust jacket photograph, which shows him looking into a mirror adjusting his tie. Highly recommended. “ Choice, 10/2004, SGeorge Shearing, OBE, is such an institution that his 80th birthday was celebrated with a concert at Carnegie Hall.
