Teddy Edwards - Tango in Harlem

Edwards was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1994, but he kept the illness quiet, determined to fight back and continue with his career. At first, when it seemed he would recover, he came back to even greater popularity. He recorded Tango in Harlem in 1995 with Billy Higgins and Christian McBride.
