Product Information

Compelling from cover to cover, this is the story of one of the most recorded and beloved jazz trumpeters of all time. With unsparing honesty and a superb eye for detail, Clark Terry, born in 1920, takes us from his impoverished childhood in St. Louis, Missouri, where jazz could be heard everywhere, to the smoke-filled small clubs and carnivals across the Jim Crow South where he got his start, and on to worldwide acclaim. Terry takes us behind the scenes of jazz history as he introduces scores of legendary greats: Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson, Dizzy Gillespie, Dinah Washington, Doc Severinsen, Ray Charles, Thelonious Monk, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, Coleman Hawkins, Zoot Sims, and Dianne Reeves, among many others. Terry also reveals much about his own personal life, his experiences with racism, how he helped break the color barrier in 1960 when he joined the Tonight Show band on NBC, and why, at ninety years old, his students from around the world still call and visit him for lessons.

Reviews
_Storytellers are to be cherished and Clark Terry should be on a pedestal for his thoroughly entertaining autobiography. Brimming with life, love, music, and great characters, this book is as much a history of the twentieth century as it is a history of his ninety years (and counting!)._, "'Clark' chronicles, in endearing prose, Terry's personal and professional journey. . . . Onstage and in the backroom, Terry and his trumpet shared a front-row seat to jazz history. "Clark" is nothing short of that remarkable story.", _No doubt because of Terry_s ebullient personality, the text reads just the way he speaks, and has vivid descriptions of people, places and smells, with a knack for folksy similes._, "'Clark' chronicles, in endearing prose, Terry's personal and professional journey. . . . Onstage and in the backroom, Terry and his trumpet shared a front-row seat to jazz history. "Clark" is nothing short of that remarkable story."-- San Francisco Chronicle, _The trumpet grandmaster, who turned 90 this year, addresses the scene with emotion, humor, concision, acuity and analytical discernment. . . . Nothing if not a blues epic, the narrative is also a true-grit portrait of a diligent, inspired artist._, _Clark is the last survivor of a great jazz age, and thus this book is doubly important. . . . With a subject like this you couldn_t go wrong, and the book is a most satisfying read._, _One feels that even the nearly sixty chapters of narrative are not enough to do justice to such an exceptional career._, _A disarmingly honest and thoroughly entertaining autobiography. . . . No drug and alcohol sob stories here, just hard work and an exceptionally good nature. This is a sweet read._, _[Clark Terry has] changed the institution of jazz education, creating new standards for a performer_s generous relationship with students of all types, and a healthy respect for the place of a thorough education in the evolution of jazz._, _Compelling from cover to cover, this is the story of one of the most recorded and beloved jazz trumpeters of all time. With unsparing honesty and a superb eye for detail, Clark Terry, born in 1920, takes us from his impoverished childhood in St. Louis, Missouri, where jazz could be heard everywhere, to the smoke-filled small clubs and carnivals across the Jim Crow South where he got his start, and on to worldwide acclaim. Terry takes us behind the scenes of jazz history as he introduces scores of legendary greats._, _A long awaited story of the great joy of playing the trumpet and making music since the early 1930s. Terry_s book is conversational in style but blunt and exacting in detail about people and dates; he holds nothing back._, _This is a book that will uplift, inspire, and make you laugh out loud. A life lived this well, with constant integrity, enthusiasm, positive energy and good will is something for which to cheer. The celebration begins when you open the pages._, _An easy, entertaining and informative volume that will please his fans and introduce budding jazz listeners to his many contributions._, _An important book, an excellent read, a genuine page turner by a dependable, talented musician who achieved worldwide fame as a unique and creative improviser._, _In his memoir, which has the pulse of jazz's life force, Clark Terry himself exemplifies what he once told me about Duke Ellington: _He wants life and music to be always in a state of becoming. He always likes to make the end of a song sound like it's still going somewhere._ On and off the bandstand, and now at his home with students in Arkansas, he gets inside the jazz life. His choruses in this book will bring readers to his music for generations to come._
