@gospelkeys07 wondeful to receive a explanation from a musician - thank you. I have a wonderful personal memory of Clark Terry. During the annual Nice Festival, Terry was waiting for the car to take him back to his hotel after his gig. As the car was late, I gave him a lift to the hotel. Was I in paradise???? Sad note : my car was stolen from the front of my house! Question: was it a Clark Terry deciple who wanted the car Clark Terry sat in?

[hommefriday]

Maybe a trumpeter could explain how Clark Terry got that unique sound from his instrument?

[otmq]

He also had a very light and efficient embouchure, playing with very low pressure and lots of air, he tended to use small mouthpieces as well, so his sound was never really "orchestral" and dark...more like warm and fluffy, with lots of high overtones

[bartoost]

What a sound! Recorded in Belgium!

[bartoost]

What a sound!

[gotmeagrape]

can anyone name the sax section? Thanks

[FingersPlainview]

Beautiful!

[MrShakbo]

Was this after the ill fated "Free and Easy" tour? I've been looking for footage of that everywhere.

[onajik]

Melba may not be lead trombone, but she's got swag...hangin' wit da fellas! 

[247hdjazz]

Melba was not the lead trombone player.....not that she couldn't be, but I'm sure that Ake was in the 1st chair.......no difficult bone parts on this chart anyway!

[adlouxo]

GREAT VIDEO!

[VISCOmaniac]

[penutbito]

drummer must feel like jesus up there

[zappacrappa2]

@penutbito The drummer is Joe Harris, and that's pretty close to Jesus as far as drumming is concerned :)

[wendytoesocks1]

Fantastic . I am just getting into Quincy 's music and love it :-)

[scomdnz9]

[Cathar19]

Melba Liston??

[HGMusicProductions]

@Cathar19 Same thing I said! I think it is.

[Elliot84]

a female lead trombone player? that's unusual, but great to see.

[MegaGarth1]
