Blues & Things
A remarkable collaboration between two jazz legends: Earl Hines, the pioneering pianist, and Jimmy Rushing, whose voice defined the Kansas City blues sound. This 1998 release captures both performing classic standards—Exactly Like You, Summertime, Am I Blue—with the ease of lifelong masters. Hines' piano playing is nimble and swinging; Rushing's voice remains warm and authoritative. These aren't studio recreations but live performances that crackle with spontaneous interaction. The DVD format adds visual documentation of these artists at work. Essential for anyone serious about jazz history or simply wanting to hear two virtuosos in their element.
