Stanley Turrentine - That's Where It's At

1962 soul jazz/hard bop album from Turrentine, joined by Les McCann (piano), Herbie Lewis (bass), and Otis Finch (drums).

Turrentine blows soulfully, McCann sings his way through his solos (easily picked up by the mic), and Lewis & Finch provide great rhythm support.

#Listening to Burnin' Coal by Les McCann, the frantic instrumental jazz opener to s02e01 of Severance;

I love the honky tonk piano work on this track. Will definitely listen to some more of McCann's tunes. So far I've found a live album recorded in 1966 in Seattle;

A beautiful ballad from the late Les McCann in honor of his friend, the late Roberta Flack. In memory of them both.

On my mental soundtrack today: a 1960s social/political protest raveup which still resonates today. God damn it! Tryin' to make it real compared to what.
