It’s an impressive change of course for the trombonist, and equally exciting for listeners.”\u003cbr\u003e\n— Brian Zimmerman, Jazziz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e“When the music calls for it, the eminent trombonist (and seemingly singular jazz-conch-shell player) Steve Turre instinctively responds with a nasty-edged spark that cements his reputation as a master of Latin-tinged hard bop. Yet his warm and fuzzy side—displayed on the ballad-heavy album THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU from last year—is equally compelling.”\u003cbr\u003e\n— Steve Futterman, The New Yorker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e“Few artists “own” their instrument to the degree that trombonist Steve Turre does. Whether playing the music of Rahsaan Roland Kirk, performing as a member of the Saturday Night Live house band or with one of his own units, his voice is distinctive and memorable.”\u003cbr\u003e\n— James Hale, Downbeat\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e#1 JazzWeek jazz radio chart\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e***\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eOne of the most energetic and visceral voices in jazz, trombone master Steve Turre delivers a surprising set of (mostly) lush ballads accompanied by a superb all-star band and inspiring strings. Backed by pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Buster Williams and drummer Willie Jones III, Turre welcomes special guests George Coleman for two songs on tenor saxophone and Russell Malone for four songs on guitar. A string octet, arranged and conducted by Marty Sheller, adds an almost indescribable beauty to four tracks. This album–with two NEA Jazz Masters, string octet, classic ballads and soulful guitar is truly a historic recording and brings out the very best from the incomparable Steve Turre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003ereleased August 24, 2018\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSteve Turre – trombone\u003cbr\u003e\nKenny Barron – piano\u003cbr\u003e\nBuster Williams – bass\u003cbr\u003e\nWillie Jones III – drums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSPECIAL GUESTS\u003cbr\u003e\nGeorge Coleman – tenor saxophone (tracks 5 \u0026amp; 10)\u003cbr\u003e\nRussell Malone – guitar (tracks 2, 3, 8 \u0026amp; 11)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSTRING OCTET (tracks 1, 5, 8 \u0026amp; 11)\u003cbr\u003e\nMarty Sheller – arranger \u0026amp; conductor\u003cbr\u003e\nRandall Goosby – violin\u003cbr\u003e\nValerie Kim – violin\u003cbr\u003e\nBrendan Elliot – violin\u003cbr\u003e\nMeng Jia Lin – violin\u003cbr\u003e\nChloé Thominet – viola\u003cbr\u003e\nJasper Snow – viola\u003cbr\u003e\nKhari Joyner – cello\u003cbr\u003e\nMarza Wilks – cello\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRecorded Live on January 24, 2018\u003cbr\u003e\nat Sear Sound Studio C, New York\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eProduced by Paul Stache\u003cbr\u003e\nAssociate Producer: Damon Smith\u003cbr\u003e\nRecorded, Mixed and Mastered by Christopher Allen\u003cbr\u003e\nStudio Assistant: Owen Mulholland\u003cbr\u003e\nPhotography by John Abbott\u003cbr\u003e\nLiner Notes by Phillip Lutz\u003cbr\u003e\nDesign by Damon Smith and Paul Stache\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eKenny Barron appears courtesy of Impulse!\u003cbr\u003e\nRussell Malone appears courtesy of High Note Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eExecutive Producers: Frank Christopher \u0026amp; Paul Stache\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smoke Sessions Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56382099063166,"sku":"SSR-1804-LP","price":133.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/4161\/5230\/files\/SSR-1804-CD.jpg?v=1760095010","url":"https:\/\/8merch.shop\/products\/steve-turre-the-very-thought-of-you-2lp","provider":"8Merch Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
