"Terell Stafford plays the trumpet with remarkable technique, a great sense of melody and swing, and a lot of heart — a combination that makes him stand out on today's scene and a reason it's easy to find him performing with people like Cedar Walton, the Clayton Brothers, Kenny Barron, Matt Wilson, the Carnegie Hall Jazz Band, the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, the Mingus Big Band and the Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra when he's not fronting his own band on gigs" (R.J. DeLuke). In 2007 he released a live recording called "Taking Chances" on Max Jazz Records.
