Poppachubby's Rabbithole

[noddin0ff]

Since I am in the realm of soul jazz, and Noddinoff is a Turrentine fan, I will start with a couple groups infact. Firstly...

Stanley Turrentine - tenor saxophone
Tommy Turrentine - trumpet
Horace Parlan - piano
George Tucker - bass
Al Harewood - drums

I would say that this gang were billed mostly under Horace Parlan's name, but occasionally under Turrentine as well. As a quintet, they were fantastic. The Turrentine brothers appeared together on several other albums, one of my faves being Max Roach's Parisian Sketches.

Oh man... I can feel my wallet getting thinner already. I hadn't really picked up on Horace but after Wiki I see he's the fingers on two fantastic Mingus albums as well (Ah Um, and Blues and Roots). Gonna have to pick one (or more) of those up.

Parlan had a storied career, he played with the best of em. I really enjoy Up and Down and Happy Frame Of Mind as well, keep your eyes out for those.
