89 year old Clark Terry will be honored at the Grammy’s for his achievements in the Jazz genre.  He’s taking a special guest with him, Josh Shpak. Shpak is a 16 year old from Walnut Creek, California.

Terry learned a thing or two from Louis Armstrong.  He feels strongly that he should give back to the younger musicians coming up.  He’s taken Shpak under his wing and will introduce him at the Grammy’s.
