AllMusic.com hails Stanley Turrentine's Salt Song with arrangements by the Grammy-winning Eumir Deodato as "another fine, eclectic outing that falls squarely into the signature CTI fusion sound: smooth but not slick, accessible but not simplistic... All in all, Salt Song has dated well, partly because the arrangements don't overemphasize electric piano, but mostly on the strength of Turrentine's always-soulful playing."

  • Comin Your Way: Affirming Stanley Turrentines genius / yahoo/udiscovermusic
    Posted At: February 20, 2023 12:00 AM
    yahoo/udiscovermusic - Charles Waring writes….The sound of Stanley Turrentine’s tenor saxophone is unmistakable. Firstly, it’s big and warm. Secondly, it’s robust yet athletic. And finally – and most impressive of all, perhaps – it’s imbued with a husky, earthy tone that helps to give it a sanctified soulfulness. Once heard, it’s never forgotten.

  • Stanley Turrentine expresses his sweet yet muscular sound in 'Don't Mess with Mister T'
    Posted At: May 9, 2012 12:00 AM

    Stanley Turrentine's 'Don't Mess with Mister T' rose to #2 on the 1975 Billboard jazz chart and was another artistic triumph for the sax legend in his year with CTI Records. What first leaps out and grabs the listener's attention is Turrentine's sweet yet muscular sound, which suggests Johnny Hodges more than the classic Swing tenors. Turrentine's flexible voice can deepe...

  • CTI releases the 40th Anniversary Remastered Edition of Stanley Turrentine's 'Sugar'
    Posted At: November 14, 2010 12:00 AM

    Sugar is a bluesy soul-jazz classic, represented here, on this remastered edition, in both studio and live versions. Butch Cornell's "Sunshine Alley" is solid, and John Coltrane's "Impressions" is given an impressive soul-jazz treatment. ("Gibraltar" was cut from the original track list, but it can be found on another CTI release, "Salt Song".) There's a lot of great jamming here, featur...
