paul secor Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 His Riverside Duke with a Difference LP was one of the first records I bought back when I was 16 or 17. It introduced me not only to him, but to a number of Ellington sidemen and to some Ellington tunes. I still listen to it. Thanks, Mr. Terry. Quote
