Jazz Kat Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 Just purchased Turrentine's The Sugar Man. Was wondering if this is a compilation. And the second song on side one is The Stretch, but I hear a rhodes, and there is no piano player listed for this track. Just an organist, and I don't hear an organ. Anybody know? Quote
Free For All Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 From AMG: "The fifth and final Stanley Turrentine CTI recording actually predates all but the first album (Sugar). This LP has five selections from Feb.-Apr. 1971, including three with larger bands arranged by either Deodato or Chico O'Farrill, and two with a sextet also including guitarist Kenny Burrell and organist Butch Cornell. The best-known selection is the tenor's first rendition of Michel Legrand's "Pieces of Dreams" from June 1973; his July 1974 rendition for Fantasy would become quite popular. Although one could consider this album to consist of leftovers, Turrentine's playing is excellent, and the overall results certainly top most of the tenor's upcoming Fantasy releases." Quote
