Clark Terry on Touring the South with All-Black Band

Season 16 Episode 4

About the Episode

Legendary trumpeter Clark Terry (1920 - 2015) describes an era when touring the South with an all-black big band was a "chore." It was difficult to find a place to eat or lodge and price gouging was common, he says. This film outtake is an original interview for American Masters - Quincy Jones: In the Pocket (2001). Jones began studying under Terry when he was 13 years old.
