Timeless Jazz: Clark Terry WUTC-FM 12-15-19 3-5 ET

[Ken Dryden]

I will be belatedly celebrating Clark Terry's 99th birthday with the December 15th edition of Timeless Jazz. 

The program includes several phone interview excerpts from a chat I did with him for Hot House back in November 2007.

One topic should be of interest to Terry fans, as I don't think that I've seen it discussed elsewhere or even mentioned in the biography that his wife wrote.
