The newly-recorded small-group set set contains a mix of pieces from throughout the then-61-year-old saxophonist's career: four songs from Turrentine's 1970s days on the CTI label (Don't_Mess_with_Mister_T., A Little Sweetness aka Sugar, I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do, and Impressions), a bossa from 1979 (The Island), two songs from his 1989 penultimate major label release La Place (Terrible T. and Touching), and a new original by longtime sideman Dave Stryker (Side Steppin').

AllMusic[4]

AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "Modern, small-group Turrentine. He plays the horn like few others, but this is not in the style of his vintage soul stuff".[4]

Personnel

gollark: What server is this?
gollark: You should use a Haskell program to generate bash code to generate Amulet code.
gollark: Weird thing I noticed today: my desktop, which was plugged in and had the PSU on, but was off according to the front panel power light, was showing Ethernet connectivity and network activity on my cheap switch. Even though the status lights on the actual network port (on the computer, not switch) were off.
gollark: I kind of want to make a random password constraint generator.
gollark: *your password must be between 8 and 4003 characters in length, the length must be a prime number not ending in 7, and it must contain one or nine Egyptian hieroglyphs, at least one valid SQL command, the tears of a unicorn, and a proof or disproof of P = NP*
