Sundog Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 Noticed this is being released next Tuesday 2/28. Don't know anything about this album. I'm assuming this material has been out before, but I'm not really sure. So what's the deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 One of the few Turrentines of this era that I have. Long story as to why. It's....Turrentine for People Who Frighten Easily, let me put it that way. Very pop-oriented (Wade Marcus charts, always a red flag for me), and nothing to get excited about. No real need to buy it unless you're a stone Turrentine completist, or unless you meet a woman who knows absolutely nothing about jazz and you want to break her in as gently as possible. But be careful - if you end up marrying her, she'll eventually hear the real stuff anyways, and you'll still have the damn album 25 years later.

So, if I see one going cheap - very cheap - I'll buy it. Stanley was a player who always sounded great even when he was making crap records - and he made a hell of a lot of those. I love these albums 'cos it's him (same as Les McCann) not because they're necessarily good music. Dunno why they're reissuing this one - nowt to chose between any of the Elektras farsicnsee.

Nice story with a happy ending. My last serious girlfriend convinced me that I liked modern country music. When she left, she not only took all the country music I bought; she also took all my EWF albums citing "emotional attachment". Hmmmm.....maybe I should buy Inflation?
