“I was twenty when I joined Benny Goodman‘s band. Benny was forty-two at the time. But after we played about four bars, we were the same age, you know? That’s what jazz does to you. It has nothing to do with race, creed, or age; when two people play together, that’s all that counts.” - Terry Gibbs

Read the first of our two part interview with Terry Gibbs. This conversation was captured four days after Mr. Gibbs’ 100th birthday. In part one, we cover the Dream Band, learning from Fred Albright, working with Benny Goodman and Charlie Parker, providing music for Regis Philbin and Steve Allen, and more. Dream Band’s ‘Vol. 7: The Lost Tapes, 1959’ is out now on Whaling City Sound

‘Wow’ is usually played at a blistering tempo and involves a tricky 16th note chorus.
