Debuting as a recording bandleader at the start of the '60s, Stanley Turrentine was an immaculate presence on the tenor sax, demonstrating supple sensitivity on tracks like the achingly slow “Willow Weep for Me.” Some of his best work was done in collaboration with his then-wife, organist and fellow soul-jazz fixture Shirley Scott: Observe their collective flexibility across the riotously grooving “Just in Time” and the smoothly swaggering “Let It Go.” Even when courting sultry string-laden funk on his 1973 version of Marvin Gaye's “Don't Mess With Mister T.,” Turrentine is all about snaking silkiness and unshakable nightclub cool.
