I think they split up sometime around 1970, though I may be wrong.
Absolutely love Stanley's sound and playing. Instantly identifiable; BIG and soulful. Have you bought the Blue Hour sessions with Gene Harris and The Three Sounds? Some find it sleep-inducing but its tough to find a more soulful sounding Mr. T.
That was my first Stanley album. Bought it two years ago. It's pretty good.
Great saxophonist. I love his sound. I don't think many people rave about him at all, even now. I been buying a lot of his albums lately. I love Sugar on CTI. His sound is in the class of Hank Mobley. Very soulful. How long was he married to Shirley? Did they ever split up?
These purchases are from this week. I went on an RVG binge:
Hank Mobley: Reach Out!
Hank Mobley: The Turnaround!
Herbie Hancock: Empyrean Isles
Stanley Turrentine: Rough N' Tumble
Stanley Turrentine: Hustlin'
Blue Mitchell: Boss Horn
Donald Byrd: Royal Flush
Grant Green: Idle Moments
Bobby Hutcherson: Happenings
I bought Royal Flush at Tower's closing sale yesterday. I just opened it. The second page has the Cooker booklets! This is b.s. I really wanted to read about Royal Flush..
Return to Forever: Light As A Feather
Return to Forever: Hym of the Seventh Galaxy
Pat Metheny: Bright Size Life
Stanley Turrentine: Sugar
George Benson: Bad Benson
Chuck Mangione Quartet: Alive
Modern Jazz Quartet: Last Concert
There's much more, I just can't think of any right now.
So, did you talk to Brubeck, Desmond, Morello or even Gene Wright about this? Some of us been there, done that.
Actually, yeah, kinda. Morello told me the whole story when I used to study with him.
Desmond was intrigued by Morello's 5/4 experimentations? First of all, he hated Morello's drumming, and Brubeck said Desmond didn't even want to write a song in 5/4.
Yes, this is the track from "Shape of jazz to come". Not the same tune as the Horace Silver tune from "Song for my father".

What the fuck is this? dont fuck with me
I was just checking out Song For My Father on cdnow. I have the lp so, I never heard the extra takes. I think the trio version of Que Pasa is way better than the take used on the album.
