  • Summary

  • Tenor saxophonist Stanley Turrentine was one of the most soulful and versatile musicians in jazz. And for much of his long career, he played music on his own terms – crossing musical boundaries often in the face of criticism. Whether playing a tune that cries out for lost love or celebrates the joy of living, Stanley’s expressions were always straight from the heart.

    As part of the Peabody Award-winning documentary series “Jazz Profiles,” this episode about Stanley Turrentine was produced in 2000 by Njemile C. Jones and narrated by the show host Nancy Wilson.

    The “Jazz Profiles” shows – nearly 200 of them – are part of the Tim Owens Jazz & Broadcast Collection at the University of North Texas Music Library. In a partnership with Tim and UNTML, we’ve picked a handful of noteworthy shows to share with you. You can find more “Jazz Profiles” shows at the UNT Music Library’s Jazz Syndicate (www.library.unt.edu/jazzsyndicate), and learn more about 32 Bar Blues' clothing collection and commitment to the arts at 32barblues.com
