Stephane Grappelli and Joe Venuti - I can't give you anything but love (from Venupelli Blues) - Video
PUBLISHED: Jan 10, 2012
DESCRIPTION: Stephane Grappelli and Joe Venuti, arguably the two top violinists in jazz history, only made one recording together, this heated 1969 studio session. With pianist George Wein and guitarist Barney Kessel helping out as part of the supporting four-piece rhythm section, Grappelli and Venuti often romp during the title cut and the six standards that comprise this memorable session. This violin "battle" ends up as a dead heat, a joyous and historic occasion for all concerned.
