Stanley Vetru

One of the greatest records ever recorded by pianist Stanley Cowell – one of the leading lights of the legendary Strata East label! Stanley's working here with a great cast of musicians that includes Ed Blackwell, Marion Brown, Bill Lee, and Nadi Quamar – in varying assemblages from track to track, creating a warm batch of spiritual grooves, topped off by the classic "Travelin' Man", a beautifully mellow number done with thumb piano and vocals, almost in a Heath Brothers Strata mode! Other tracks include "Lullabye", "Thank You My People", "Trying To Find A Way", and "The Gehmbhre" – and the whole album's very solid!

McCoy Tyner with Stanley Clarke and Al Foster is an album by McCoy Tyner released on the Telarc label in 2000. It was recorded in April 1999 and features performances of by Tyner with Stanley Clarke and Al Foster. The Allmusic review by Richard S. Ginell states that "This is Tyner reaffirming most of his strengths: the massive tone quality, the two-handed control over the entire keyboard, and the generally uplifting attitude conveyed through the shape of his melodic invention".

If there has ever been an album that fit perfectly into the label sound of CTI Records and then still completely escaped this categorization, then it was "Sugar" by Stanley Turrentine.

Singer, dancer, ingenue, Lyn Stanley is a fully realized and mature talent exploding into her own. An award-winning ballroom dancer, Stanley melds that physical experience of movement with her performance of jazz standards, bringing the genre back to its dancing, kinetic roots. As executive producer, Stanley brings a Midas touch to the proceedings, producing in wholly urbane and sophisticated collection of the best the Great American Songbook has to offer. It takes a certain fortitude to record one more collection of jazz standards,but, then again, this is the most appropriate starting place for Stanley. Standards are the proving ground for Stanley's singing philosophy and that philosophy is a sound and entertaining one.
