Mr. Natural jazz saxophonist Stanley Turrentine , recorded for the Blue Note label in 1964 but not released until 1980 as LT 1075, and performed by Turrentine with Lee Morgan , McCoy Tyner , Bob Cranshaw , Elvin Jones and Ray Barretto .[1]
Reception The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden awarded the album 3 stars and states "Although long out of print and an unlikely candidate to be reissued on CD, this rewarding session is well worth seeking, even if Blue Note founder Alfred Lion had second thoughts about it and set it aside".[4]
