I believe that the guitar player may perhaps be my cousin Richard Garcia, Though I never met him I do in fact have many of his recordings that my family made bfore I was born and though most of the family have past on now including my father John Garcia Richards Uncle. The original double sided record of George Shearing that reads Richard Garcia as the lead guitarist is still in my possesion and though many attempts have been made to contact my cousin, I have still yet to meet him. John Garcia.

Will someone please post 'Quintessence' by George? Thank You. A fan since 1948.

I used to go to the Ted Heath swing sessions at the London Palladium in the late 1940s and saw George there the Sunday evening before he went to USA.
A very young Victor Feldman was there on drums.
The seat cost 2/6 in the Gods. That's 12.5p (20c?).

unbelievable! A lot of jazz guitarchords in a round. Cuck Wayne is a true master.

RIP George! And we lost Chuck Wayne several years ago! I'm not sure if the others are still with us or not. Jazz at it's best!

Semplicemente grandi!!
I believe the technique demonstrated here is called "locked-hands" style - chord on the right hand, melody note duplicated on the left.

That technique is not very used, i hear only Shearing, Peterson & Milt Buckner, mabe another more. Block chords sounds great!!!!!
