Stanley Turrentine – Easy Walker (LP)

Stanley Turrentine‘s 1966 album, Easy Walker, was right in the soulful tenor saxophonist’s sweet spot with Mr. T fronting a versatile quartet with McCoy Tyner on piano, Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Mickey Roker on drums.

The engaging set featured hard-grooving numbers, sultry ballads, and a version of Burt Bacharach’s “What The World Needs Now Is Love.”
