NotesA special afternoon with the iconic jazz clarinetist, Brad Terry and the extraordinary jazz guitarist, Peter Herman.
Brad Terry is a jazz legend and Maine treasure. Brad's musical journey started more than 70 years ago when legendary band leader "King of Swing" Benny Goodman told his mother to buy Brad a clarinet. "I got three free lessons when I bought the instrument and almost immediately, I started playing this wonderful music called jazz. Undiagnosed ADD forced me to learn everything by ear; reading music was not an option. (Later I had three unproductive lessons with Benny )"
It was raw luck that early on Brad started playing with Steve Swallow, Sam Brown & Wayne Wright; did concerts with Chuck Wayne & Joe Puma; sat in at the Celebrity Club and played multiple gigs with Buddy Tate & Buck Clayton.
Later Brad sat in with Eddie Thompson and Major Holly and played for years with Eddie Thompson, even recording a CD with him.
Brad won the Hennessy Cognac Jazz search in NYC with John Basile and recorded a whistling track with Roger Kellaway and Red Mitchell.
Dizzy Gillespie visited for a week doing school programs and invited Brad to New York to play Cuban music with him at The Village Gate.
Brad enjoyed a 25 year partnership with Joachim Mencel in Poland including lots of concerts and school programs and recording 3 CDs. (23 trips to Poland)
While in Poland Brad recorded 2 CDs, 1 Gershwin and 1 Ellington, with Jarek Smietana.
Brad's album with guitar legend and Maine native Lenny Breau, “Livingroom Tapes”, received 4 stars from Leonard Feather.

NotesThe Link will take to many old videos of past MBS Festivals....I thought the timing was good
It's youtube so there may be some non-MBS shows in the mix.
Here is some help for those who may not know how to open the video links.
If using my email list:
Click the "Event Name" link and another window will open up.
Under Contact, Click either the Event Website or Facebook link
This should take you to the Video source.
If using my website:
Click the plus sign on far right side of listing and this will expand the window for the listing.
Under Contact, Click either the Event Website or Facebook link
This should take you to the Video source.
If you want to simply copy the url, for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFtM3s4Lfyo from the Blind Lemons listing
and paste this in your internet browser (Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge etc)
This should bring you to video source.
Any questions please let me know.
I'm blessed to still have a day job so response may not be immediate.
