Clark Terry (trumpet and flugelhorn) made his name with the Count Basie and Duke Ellington orchestras, and Bob Brookmeyer (valve trombone) with the Gerry Mulligan Quartet.

Both players command their instruments with a dazzling technique, and in 'Things ain't what they used to be', Clark Terry delights the audience with his famous mumbled vocal interpretation.

The programme was recorded in 1964 for BBC2's Jazz 625.

Accompanying Clark Terry and Bob Brookmeyer are Laurie Holloway (piano) Rick Laird (bass) Allan Ganley (drums)

Introduced by Humphrey Lyttelton
