Clark Terry: Porgy & Bess
by Michael P. Gladstone
For the second time in a year, a major collaboration of Miles Davis-Gil Evans from the late 1950s has been repackaged with a new dressing.

The venerable trumpeter/flugelhornist Clark ...

Clark Terry & Chico O: Spanish Rice
by David Rickert
Spanish Rice has all the ingredients for a successful Latin music session: clattering percussionists, a couple of guitars, peppy horns—there’s even a recipe for Spanish rice included for the curious.
