I had the rare privilege of backing up Mr. Terry in a big band in Modesto, Ca. many years ago and I consider it one of the greatest musical moments of my life. Clark Terry was not only a superior musician but the nicest and most giving person you could ever meet. A truly great man. May he rest in peace.
In the 70's and 80's I went to lengths to hear the artists I loved, including Clark. Met so many greats still around in the 70's, hug and love; pure love as jazz brothers: LOVE Clark my brother.
You gave us ‘you’ Clarke thank you and you will live on and on like the Duracell crazy battery ! Thank you for being ‘ You’. Were so lucky to have you in our world of music.
One of my fondest memories, is spending three days on a school bus in Central Kansas, listening to Clark share stories about his time with Basie, Ellington and the NBC orchestra as our college band traveled to area high schools performing with him. We played the same songs over and over but his solos were never the same. What a master. We miss you CT. "Raises for Everyone!!!"
I played my first ever improvised solo next to Clark Terry at a jazz festival in front of an audience when I was in middle school. I got an outstanding soloist award for my written solo in "Blue Bossa" during the competition, and was told that anyone that got that award got to go on stage at the evening concert and play a Bb blues improvised solo next to Clark Terry. I was so nervous when I found out!! I spent 2-3 hours thinking about what notes to play, and I played "air saxophone" while on the bus, while eating dinner at the mall, riding back, and during the concert, and I did okay on my solo!
I love blues music has a most special part in my heart. This was amazing to hear. So much to do and yet here I sit parked between my speakers just loving this. Thank you for sharing this jewel!
Uncle Clark has inspired countless trumpet players and people willing to give a listen to jazz throughout his professional career. When he plays two notes you know it is him, such is his happy signature sound. Anyone who saw him play the horn upside down on his feature on the tonight show way back when is probably still gob smacked by the artistry and control it took to do that. Not a parlor trick! The warmth and genuine love his tone conveys says everything about the man and he had super chops. A missed master!!!

RIP Clark Terry and thank you for all the wonderful moments of enjoyment you have given to jazz lovers everywhere. Your legacy will live on as long as there are people alive who enjoy great music. Clark Terry the absolute master of the trumpet and flugel horn, who had everything; technical virtuosity, lyricism, creativity, swing........ you name it, Clark Terry had it and what a great and generous human being. And thanks so much for posting this wonderful tribute to him.

Say something like "2 Hours of jazz, with numerous interuptions from commercials.......some right in the middle of songs" That would be honest and more accurate! Thanks again!

How very kind of yoy, Sir Mitch, to write such a kind in memoriam. Thank you.
My uncle is missed and it is Nice to hear those kind words about him.❤️🎺
Why do you think we don't know his name as readily as say Monk, Hancock, Ellington etc?
In the 70's and 80's I went to lengths to hear the artists I loved, including Clark. Met so many greats still around in the 70's, hug and love; pure love as jazz brothers: LOVE Clark my brother.

See "KEEP ON KEEP'IN ON" on Netflix. Great how a young blind kid pianist enriched Clark Terry's life at the end of his life.
Still love you Clark!
This is Smooth Jazz !

Why isn't "Mumbles" in here? It's classic, one of his signature pieces.
R.I.P.
This is nice.
more data please !
Thanks for this, but it shouldn't be billed as "2 hours of pure jazz", as there are numerous interuptions caused by commercials!

Pero cuando murió?
Alguien que me diga...
Miles Davis live
Say something like "2 Hours of jazz, with numerous interuptions from commercials.......some right in the middle of songs"
That would be honest and more accurate! Thanks again!
Or just install Ad Block and stop complaining, moron
more chops than diz.
can of worms debate
Wynton Marcelas favors Clark.
