Synopsis:: Show moreShow less
Norman Granz is one of the most important non-musicians in the history of jazz and no one has made a greater contribution to the staging, recording and filming of jazz concerts. This series of performances from the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival now makes a part of this legacy. Clark Terry has been described as "possessor of the happiest sound in jazz". A veteran of Duke Ellington's Orchestra, he began to perform as a soloist in the sixties and established a reputation as one of the great teachers of jazz music, which continues to the present day.
In this typically exhilarating performance from 1977 he is joined by an all star band including Oscar Peterson, Ronnie Scott, Niels Pedersen, Joe Pass, Bobby Durham and Milt Jackson.
