That’s a pity :( I was recently searching for a thread about him but couldn’t find anything. Was doubting to buy the Awareness and other Mainstream album. Not really a well known player but the personell on those dates look very good.

'Awareness' and 'Pure Dynamite' are wonderful albums - you'll love them.  "Baba Hengates" on the latter is especially wonderful.  Underappreciated player.  RIP.

I’ll keep them on my wishlist, thanks! Already had a feeling these albums were great.

I'm afraid this is the first I've heard of him. Not sure how that happened from reading about him now.

Anyone have personnel info on: Lean On Him, Pure Dynamite and Awareness?

Newark produced some fine musicians.  With Connie Lester's passing earlier this year, we've lost two Newark stalwarts (and Freddie Roach sidemen).  I only know Buddy Terry through Roach's The Soul Book, but Terry's leader dates look mighty interesting.  Thank you for the music, Mr. Terry, and rest in peace.
