George Shearing Trio & Stephane Grapelli – The Reunion (1977/2014) [HighResAudio FLAC 24bit/88,2kHz]

A wonderful duo release from ’76 with pianist George Shearing collaborating with violinist Stephane Grappelli. Shearing’s sessions are usually more introspective and light than upbeat and hot, but Grappelli’s soaring, exuberant violin solos seem to put a charge into Shearing, who responds with some of his hottest playing in many years.
