Further on down the line, Clark Terry chose to help and mentor Miles Davis and Quincy Jones. I can stop there.But I am going to keep on keeping on, do you know that Keep On Keeping On is the name of a documentary that just came out this year, that is about Clark Terry, still mentoring, late in his life. The film chronicles him and time he spent with a blind pianist who is about 1/4th his age. Interested and teaching until the very end, my friends.I like the saying, Keep On Keepin' On. My 1st memory of it was hearing my Dad's father say it - his name was Reverend Hiawatha Coleman, the pastor at Mt. Zion Baptist Church on 50th & Woodland in Southwest Philadelphia, from 1955 until 1986. Keep on keeping on was on the wall in that church and it may still be until this day.http://articles.philly.com/1989-12-04/news/26158432_1_pastor-emeritus-doctor-of-divinity-degree-churches-and-fourOne day, I named my son, Thelonious Hiawatha Coleman. In the very near future, like in the 2nd hour, you will hear a collaboration between Thelonious Monk and Clark Terry followed by Clark's rendition of Thelonious Monk's Straight No Chaser. I wondered while doing this show, if it is possible that one person fully represents the full spectrum of Jazz? The style, the grace, the happiness on the face. Able to go any place, and any place you go, people are glad to see you, happy to have you and eager to hear you.That Jazz life. I like that life. Possibilities seem endless. Endless opportunities to enjoy life and what you do seem possible.If you've never given Jazz a chance, here's your chance. This is my chance to do what I can to keep on with the keeping on of something genius, elegant and far reaching.http://clarkterry.com/http://keeponkeepinon.com/http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/03/movies/keep-on-keepin-on-a-film-on-the-jazz-great-clark-terry.html?_r=2http://www.newyorker.com/culture/culture-desk/sound-musical-joy-clark-terrys-trumpethttp://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/23/arts/music/clark-terry-influential-jazz-trumpeter-dies-at-94.htmlPhoto: http://digital.vpr.net/post/friday-night-jazz-clark-terry-special
