Joe Turner – The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner – Cassette

“Joe Turner – The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner” is a collaborative album featuring blues vocalist Joe Turner and a group of renowned trumpet players. Released in 1974, the album brings together Turner’s powerful vocals with the talents of several prominent trumpet players of the time.

The album showcases a mix of blues, jazz, and R&B styles, with Turner’s gritty and soulful voice front and center. The trumpet players featured on the album include Dizzy Gillespie, Roy Eldridge, Harry “Sweets” Edison, and Clark Terry, among others. Each trumpet player brings their own distinct style and flair to the songs, complementing Turner’s vocals and adding rich melodic layers to the music.

This album features a most unusual session. Veteran blues singer Joe Turner and his usual rhythm section of the mid-’70s, which includes guitarist Pee Wee Crayton, are joined by four notable trumpeters: Dizzy Gillespie, Roy Eldridge, Harry “Sweets” Edison, and Clark Terry.

On three blues, including the 15-minute “I Know You Love Me Baby”, and “Tain’t Nobody’s Bizness If I Do,” the group stretches out with each of the trumpeters getting ample solo space. It is not a classic outing, but it is colorful and unique enough to be easily recommended to straight-ahead jazz and blues fans.

The tracks on the album, such as “Mornin’, Noon And Night,” and “T. V. Momma,” highlight Turner’s ability to deliver passionate and emotive performances. The combination of his soulful vocals with the vibrant and expressive trumpet playing creates a dynamic and captivating listening experience.

“Joe Turner – The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner” pays tribute to the rich tradition of blues and jazz music, bringing together two important elements of the genre: Turner’s powerful voice and the melodic brilliance of the trumpet players. The album serves as a celebration of the shared musical heritage and showcases the chemistry and synergy between Turner and the trumpet kings.

For fans of blues, jazz, and soulful vocals, Joe Turner – The Trumpet Kings Meet Joe Turner offers a compelling and enjoyable musical journey. It represents the intersection of two musical worlds and honors the contributions of both Turner and the talented trumpet players who join him on the album.
