Duke with a Difference is an album by American jazz trumpeter Clark Terry featuring tracks recorded in 1957 for the Riverside label.[ 1]
Reception
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [ 2]
AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars, stating:
Clark Terry and some of the top Ellington sidemen of the period perform eight songs associated with Duke, but with fresh arrangements. There is plenty of solo space for Terry, Gonsalves, and Hodges, and the arrangements by Terry and Mercer Ellington cast a new light on some of the warhorses.[ 2]
