The Clark Terry Quintet With Bob Brookmeyer Live 1965

[@Hyslop65]

I was fortunate enough not only to hear these gentlemen at the Half Note in New York as a teenager but to work with both of them in my career with symphony orchestras. Great talents and even greater people.

I also saw them play several times at the Half Note in the sixties. My best friend growing up was Ernie Royal Jr. One time Big Ernie and his wife Flo asked me if I wanted to go over Clark Terry's house in Bayside, Queens with them and Ernie Jr. I took my Oscar Peterson Trio + One, Clark Terry album and Clark was very gracious and wrote a personalized autograph and drew a picture of a trumpet under his signature. He was extremely nice and we had a great time. Great memory.

[@peteryeoman8813]

That was truly wonderful and to think they used to say that British rythem sections dod

[@peteryeoman8813]

Got myself in a mess with that,meant to say that British rhythm sections were on a par with American ones ,this speaks for itself,it was wonderful.

[@spensert4933]

second hand story... Mingus punched Brookmeyer in the face when he was in the band... Mingus wonderful genius but not a great moment if true!

[@robertgraham4728]

My understanding is that he punched Jimmy Knepper.

[@MrMulligan169]

Jo també tinc entès que va colpejar a Jimmy Kneeper. Mingus tenia un gran talent musical pero una personalitat disfuncional. També va tenir problemes amb Juan Tizol.

[@jorymil]

AFAIK, Brookmeyer never played with Mingus. Jimmy Knepper was the trombone player in question. I don't know how you punch the star of "Pussy Cat Dues" in the mouth, but that was Mingus. People talk about Jack Teagarden or J.J. Johnson, but Jimmy Knepper was a phenomenon.
