Jazz Concert

Jazz Concert is a 1963 live album by George Shearing and his quintet, recorded 16 February 1963 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.

Reception
Scott Yanow reviewed the album for Allmusic and wrote that "The most memorable tracks include "Walkin'," "Love Walked In", and a nearly 12-minute rendition of "Love Is Just Around the Corner." Although the group always had a dominant easy-listening sound, a lot of hard-swinging often took place beneath the surface, particularly during their live sets."

Harvey Pekar of DownBeat noted, "Shearing's inventiveness, excellent sense of pace, and rhythmic suppleness place this selection in a class with his better work of 12 to 15 years ago."
