Earl Hines
Earl Kenneth Hines, universally known as Earl "Fatha"Hines (December 28, 1903 – April 22, 1983), was an American jazz pianist and bandleader. He was one of the most influential figures in the development of jazz piano and, according to one major source, is "one of a small number of pianists whose playing shaped the history of jazz".
Trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie, a member of the Earl Hines big-band along with Charlie Parker, wrote, "The piano is the basis of modern harmony. This little guy came out of Chicago, Earl Hines. He changed the style of the piano. You can find the roots of Bud Powell, Herbie Hancock, all the guys who came after that. If it hadn't been for Earl Hines blazing the path for the next generation to come, it's no telling where or how they would be playing now. There were individual variations but the style of ... the modern piano came from Earl Hines."
Pianist Lennie Tristano said, "Earl Hines is the only one of us capable of creating real jazz and real swing when playing all alone." Horace Silver said, "He has a completely unique style. No one can get that sound, no other pianist".Erroll Garner said, "When you talk about greatness, you talk about Art Tatum and Earl Hines".
Squeeze Me
"Squeeze Me" is a 1925 jazz standard composed by Fats Waller. It was based on an old blues song called "The Boy in the Boat". The lyrics were credited to publisher Clarence Williams, although Andy Razaf has claimed to have actually written the lyrics.
The song has been recorded by numerous artists, including Louis Armstrong, Eddie Condon, Count Basie, Mildred Bailey, James P. Johnson, Bessie Smith, Jimmy Smith and Dinah Washington.

Squeeze Me
by: Anita BakerOh, want to squeeze me, have mercy
Baby, won't you tease me
Come on and squeeze me
I like it when you tease me
Like the way you shake your thang
Like the way you move
Love the way you so casually
Slide into the groove
You know, you take me so high boy
I don't want to come down
You don't have to be shy baby
As long as I'm around
Ooh, you love me so good
I could never love another
And I wish you would
Not be so undercover
Come on and squeeze me
Baby, won't you tease me
Come on and squeeze me
I like it, I like it when you tease me
Whenever I get lonely
I start thinking about you
Ooh, sweet baby you're the only one
Can do the things you do
You tickle my fascination
I get all caught up around you
Such a thrilling sensation
When you get into my groove
Hold me
Tell me I'm your one and only baby
Ooh, make it good tonight
I'm gonna make it feel so nice
Ooh, your love is so good
I can never love another
And I wish you would
Not be so undercover
Come on and squeeze me, have mercy
Baby, won't you tease me
Squeeze me
I like it, I like it when you tease me
Squeeze me, say won't you
Baby, won't you tease me
Come on and squeeze me
Say baby, won't you tease me
Squeeze me
Tease me
Squeeze me
Tease me
Squeeze me
Tease me
Squeeze me
Tease me
Squeeze me
Tease me
Squeeze me
Tease me
