Not only one of the most influential trumpeters of all time, Clark was also one of the finest human beings to ever walk the planet. It was one of the highlights of my life to have known and loved him.

Clark was a genius. His technique was effortless and his music imaginative and uniquely Clark Terry.

Clark Terry was considered the Trumpeter with the perfect embouchure. Unlike dizzy who's face blew up like a balloon. He also could sustain notes indefinetly using a technique known as circular breathing. He also was a great vocalist and could actually take excellent adlib solos playing his trumpet upside down. Clark Terry was an amazing musician and a great man.

To me, That flute and Drum opening at the beginning of "On the Trail" gets me every time. The color and blend of everybody's unique timbre and sound, is just a wave of warm positivity, awkward darkness, and eventually combines to form an honest feeling of adventure. Clark is everyone's guide(the audience and the bands) and his sound is reassuring, fun, tireless and timeless. Please keep this video up. There is so much language to be heard!!!

Quincy Jones was a gifted conductor, arranger and composer of modern big bands. The ability to pick and choose sighted musicians give him an added advantage. Listen to all the modern compositions he arranged, and maintained the fundamental structure but modified and manipulated them to be in line with big band approach adding sufficient space for solos.

Great performance by Clark Terry's Big BAD band. The late Oscar Gamby Jr. was the leader of the Pavilion Music Company of Cincinnati, OH for many years. This band played many of the charts from Clark Terry's Big BAD band including Randi and Etoile.

Etoile was written by Phil Woods after an area in Paris, I believe. And I'm pretty sure the publishing/production company was named after the tune, not the other way around.

And I guess also - from own experience, and beside needed practice/ learn an instrument: A playful attitude like among children, and continue in this as adult - listening to the band, and create in fantasy also in the moment (I come to learn even composer like for ex J S Bach or P Tjajkovskij started influenced by folk dances and melodies). Happy and thankful for been blessed hearing this Big band in my teens around 1978 in the swe town Örebro, and C Terry with great swe musicians several times in Stockholm (esp Arne Domnérus). Have a great time, as Clark Terry tought us / Urban W
