Earl Hines swings "Cavernism" with a violin solo. Unfortunately, it's too brief but it shows a jazz violinist of equal refinement as those of Grappelli. Despite its brevity, this is a wonderful example of the best in swing during the early 1930s. I am ashamed to admit I have not properly listened to Earl Hines, a pivotal figure in the history of jazz piano.
