EKE BBB Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 Dan Aldag wrote this in the last issue of DEMS bulletin: When Clark Terry was here to play with my band last spring, he told me he had just finished his autobiography. Does anyone know anything about when it might be published? CT said that the book was going to be controversial because "I told the truth!"

JSngry Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 ...as in "Mumbles", as in the tune, as in if he did that in his autobiography, not a single world would be readable, as in it's a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 The book is armed with a Preface, a Foreward, and an Introduction. That's a LOT of foreplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I was using it metaphorically, that is, there are a lot of preliminaries before you get to the book itself (do your own extrapolation!). But still.....one hopes one is never too old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fer Urbina Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Have been browsing the book. At first sight it looks informative and entertaining, although it also looks that the authors haven't stuck very strictly to chronological order. Does Durium know that his blog is mentioned in the book? P. 178, when talking about the quintet with Brookmeyer, they refer to BBC footage and they give this link: http://keepswinging.blogspot.co.uk/2008/01/clark-terry-bob-brookmeyer-quintet.html F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
