One of the key players in the soul-jazz subgenre of the 1960s, tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine's strongly blues-based, economical approach, and juicy (but never overripe) tone were equally suited to rendering soul and pop hits. This package combines two LPs, Have You Ever Seen the Rain (made in 1975) and Use the Stairs (1980), showcasing Turrentine's ability to state a melody, and follow with an engaging, thoroughly accessible solo. Although Have You Ever Seen the Rain was the more pop-oriented, the supporting cast was packed with brilliant jazz players, including frequent Turrentine cohorts Freddie Hubbard, Ron Carter, and Jack DeJohnette. There were also, on some tracks, Gene Page-arranged strings. Use the Stairs, the big band date with arrangements by Wade Marcus that fills the second half of this set, was Turrentine's final Fantasy album. Accompanied by the cream of New York's jazz-studio crop, Turrentine (1934-2000) focused more on his jazz side, with winning versions of standards like "The Lamp Is Low" and "Georgia on My Mind," and such estimable, melodic post-bop fare as Tadd Dameron's "On a Misty Night" and Duke Jordan's "Jordu."

Two former LPs are completely reissued on this single CD. The first set, Have You Ever Seen the Rain, was recorded in 1975 shortly after tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine left the CTI label, and it is a rather commercial effort despite a couple appearances by trumpeter Freddie Hubbard. Mr. T. plays well, as always, but the arrangements by Gene Page for an expanded rhythm section, strings, and voices are quite forgettable and Turrentine is unable to uplift the music much. The second album, 1980's Use the Stairs, has Turrentine with a big band arranged by Wade Marcus, and is more jazz-oriented, with the highlights including "The Lamp Is Low," "On a Misty Night," and "Jordu." But one should acquire Stanley Turrentine's earlier Blue Note and CTI recordings first, for those let him cut loose much more than most of his Fantasy albums.

Stanley Turrentine
Active Decades: '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s
Born: Apr 05, 1934 in Pittsburgh, PA
Died: Sep 12, 2000 in New York, NY
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Fusion, Hard Bop, Soul-Jazz
A legend of the tenor saxophone, Stanley Turrentine was renowned for his distinctively thick, rippling tone, an earthy grounding in the blues, and his ability to work a groove with soul and imagination. Turrentine recorded in a wide variety of settings, but was best-known for his Blue Note soul-jazz jams of the '60s, and also underwent a popular fusion makeover in the early '70s. Born in Pittsburgh on April 5, 1934, Turrentine began his career playing with various blues and R&B bands, with a strong influence from Illinois Jacquet. He played in Lowell Fulson's band with Ray Charles from 1950-1951, and in 1953, he replaced John Coltrane in Earl Bostic's early R&Bjazz band. After a mid-'50s stint in the military, Turrentine joined Max Roach's band and subsequently met organist Shirley Scott, whom he married in 1960 and would record with frequently.
Upon moving to Philadelphia, Turrentine struck up a chemistry with another organist, Jimmy Smith, appearing on Smith's 1960 classics Back at the Chicken Shack and Midnight Special, among others. Also in 1960, Turrentine began recording as a leader for Blue Note, concentrating chiefly on small-group soul-jazz on classics like That's Where It's At, but also working with the Three Sounds (on 1961's Blue Hour) and experimenting with larger ensemble settings in the mid-'60s. As the '70s dawned, Turrentine and Scott divorced and Turrentine became a popular linchpin of Creed Taylor's new, fusion-oriented CTI label; he recorded five albums, highlighted by Sugar, Salt Song, and Don't Mess With Mister T. While those commercially accessible efforts were artistically rewarding as well, critical opinion wasn't as kind to his late-'70s work for Fantasy; still, Turrentine continued to record prolifically, and returned to his trademark soul-jazz in the '80s and '90s. Turrentine passed away on September 12, 2000, following a massive stroke.
