Clark Terry: Serenade To A Bus Seat (CD: Riverside Keepnews Collection)
Until the mid-Fifties, Clark Terry--who was to become a valued regular on the jazz record scene--had been hidden in the trumpet sections of major orchestras (Ellington, Basie, Hampton). He began his climb to prominence with an appearance on Thelonious Monk's notable Brilliant Corners LP, soon followed by a series of his own Riverside albums, of which this was the first (the title refers to the one-nighters of his big-band past). The contents here are undiluted hard bop: five Terry originals, two standards, one by Charlie Parker. The supporting cast is totally first class for this era; and it's worth noting that two mainstays of the Riverside team of recording artists, Johnny Griffin and Wynton Kelly, were both appearing on the label for the first time. (Fantasy, Inc.)

Clark Terry Septet: What Makes Sammy Swing (CD: Lone Hill Jazz)
“What Makes Sammy Swing” (1963) features an All-Star Septet, led by Clark Terry, featuring outstanding soloists including Phil Woods (playing clarinet and flute in addition to alto sax), Urbie Green, Seldon Powell and Dave McKenna. Other personnel includes George Duvivier, Mel Lewis, Kenny Clarke & Elek Bacsik.

The bonus album, “Paris 1960”, comprises three 1960 small group sessions recorded in France featuring Quentin Jackson (singing on two tracks!) and French pianist Martial Solal. It includes 5 tracks recorded for the French film “Si le vent te fait Peur”.

First published in 1941, ‘What Makes Sammy Run?’ was originally a novel by Budd Schulberg - a rags to riches story chronicling the rise and fall of Sammy Glick, a Jewish boy born in New York's Lower East Side. It was later made into a successful Broadway show with music by Ervin Drake and in 1963, Clark Terry and an all-star group of musicians were asked to make a record with jazz versions of some of the musical’s songs, with arrangements by Pat Williams. Two very rare albums on CD for the first time. (Discovery Records)
