Stanley Turrentine - Don’t Mess With Mr.T (1973)

As I`ve promised..

..an earful and joyous jazz experience!

Just a brief description:
Born in a musician family, Stanley Turrentine started his career as saxophonist far in the 50`s and was active almost until his death in 2000. During his long trajectory he released many records in blues, rnb, soul jazz and jazz fusion genres with excellent artists.

I`m really not his biggest fan and don`t much about him. Well, I don`t about you but when I read the heavy names involved in this production, that`s enough for me! Creed Taylor, Idris Muhammad, Ron Carter and Bob James just say a few names (sorry, the list is vast..) and can`t forget to say that album name track comes from Marvin Gaye... enough ah?!


Maybe not the best, but still one of the greatest on the sax..
You deserve to taste it!
