Active worldwide both with his own orchestra and as a big band soloist, he died in 2015 at the age of 94, but his music is destined to live on forever. He received numerous awards and honors, including a Grammy Award and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010. In addition to Clark Terry himself, many other top-notch musicians from the heyday of big band have performed.Clark Terry's introduction of the songs and members of the band is in a groove, culminating in the hit M-10 "Mumbles," made famous by his many years as a key member of the Tonight Show Band. The entire band is in great form, and the bright approach to every note played shows ample evidence of why he is considered one of the greatest trumpet players in jazz history. This is the essence of the Clark Terry Big Bad Band.
