Stanley Turrentine's Soulful Shine
5 out of 5 stars
DwFuqiiFebruary 1, 2024United States🇺🇸
Captured during several sessions in fall 1968, SOUL SONG shines with Stanley Turrentine taking center stage, while Scott steps back a bit on some tracks in this smooth and soulful collection. "Think", "When A Man Loves A Woman", and the namesake track truly shine. This 1969 pressing offers decent sound quality, with good bass and clear percussion, though the soundstage feels a tad tight and confined. My copy plays smoothly with minimal surface noise.
