The Sugar Man is an album by Stanley Turrentine. The recording is a compilation of four separate dates, each with different conductors, arrangers and other personnel. The album was recorded in 1971 after his successful debut, Sugar for the CTI label, but not released until 1975 after Turrentine had left for Fantasy Records.”The fifth and final Stanley Turrentine CTI recording actually predates all but the first album (Sugar). This LP has five selections from Feb.-Apr. 1971, including three with larger bands arranged by either Deodato or Chico O’Farrill, and two with a sextet also including guitarist Kenny Burrell and organist Butch Cornell. The best-known selection is the tenor’s first rendition of Michel Legrand’s “Pieces of Dreams” from June 1973; his July 1974 rendition for Fantasy would become quite popular. Although one could consider this album to consist of leftovers, Turrentine’s playing is excellent, and the overall results certainly top most of the tenor’s upcoming Fantasy releases.” (Scott Yanow, AMG)
