The Tracking Angle raves: "...jawdropping. The track slam, the cymbals shimmer; the bass plucks, the wood resonates; the piano hammer glows...utterly authorative".
Our acclaimed recording of the ballads and blues of an alto player whose sound I can’t forget, the man the Duke found to replace Johnny Hodges. Wynton Marsalis said:
“If I had one-tenth the ability to swing as Norris Turney, I could
die a happy man.” We hooked Norris up with three of Cannonball Adderley’s best rhythm players: Larry Willis, Walter Booker and Jimmy Cobb. The instant magic between them created a jazz and audiophile classic.
