GRAMMYS- the best ..the worst

Lots of stiff competition during this years Grammys, both in wear and voice. This event however was marked at a sad not commemorating the life of Influential jazz trumpeter Clark Terry who  died Feb. 21 in Pine Bluff, Ark., following complications from diabetes. He was 94. According to the Grammys news, Terry was known as a first-rate session musician, accomplished sideman and bandleader. Rest in peace.
