Mel Torme and George Shearing

Listening to this pair on Concord, it's hard not to feel that Mel Torme was under-appreciated. He had a wonderful voice, truly "velvety" sounding especially in later years. In my opinion, he was better than Sinatra. And unlike Sinatra, his voice actually got better as he aged. These 80s recordings with Shearing are just great. The two really had a certain chemistry that make these a pleasure to listen to. Here's a clip of "it might as well be Spring".
