TURRENTINE,STANLEY - Up At Minton's (Sealed) (2LP)

A very welcomed reissue of this long out-of-print and hard-to-find Stanley Turrentine live album. Originally released on Blue Note as two separate volumes in 1961, Up At Minton's catches the Stanley Turrentine quintet live at the mythical Minton Club in New York, in 1961, when the tenor saxophonist was leading a super tight quintet featuring Grant Green (guitar), Horace Parlan (piano), George Tucker (bass), and Al Harewood (drums). This is hard swinging soulful jazz at it's best.
