Saxophonist John "Johnny" Dankworth was one of the most celebrated jazz musicians and bandleaders of his native Great Britain. He performed with Charlie Parker during the bop era, and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2006. Dankworth passed away earlier this year at age 82. Piano Jazz remembers Dankworth on this 1998 session, recorded before an audience at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. Dankworth joins vocalist and wife Cleo Laine, along with host McPartland, for "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," and "Fine and Mellow."
