The Jazz Museum in Harlem

I attended a talk last night at the JMIH that spotlighted Clark Terry. Clark is a treasure. His recall of days gone by is remarkable. He talked about Basie and how he thought Basie's style of playing evolved from Basie's early days in Kansas City.
CT talked of Duke, and his influence on music and his life.
He talked about working with Monk.
I wish I could give you a blow by blow description, it was a remarkable event.
