Those interested in Stanley Turrentine taking it beyond the Blue Note should definitely pick up Sugar, a soulful, deep, and chugging record that includes a refined 'Sugar' and a transcending rendition of Coltrane's 'Impressions'. Working with other CTI artists Freddie Hubbard and George Benson, and with the great Lonnie Liston Smith jr., Ron Carter and Billy Kaye, this album was engineered by Rudy Van Gelder to create that warmth and depth that we love.
Some say to never judge a book by its cover, but in this case the provocatively beautiful artwork is definitely a promise of what's hiding in these big black grooves
