"Right Touch" is a classic jazz album by the renowned pianist and composer Duke Pearson, now available in CD format from Universal Import. Originally released in 1967, this record captures Pearson at his creative peak, blending soulful melodies with sophisticated arrangements that showcase his signature touch on the piano. The album features an all-star lineup of musicians and includes standout tracks like "Chili Peppers," "My Love Waits (O Meu Amor Espera)," and the title track "The Right Touch." This release is perfect for both seasoned jazz aficionados and newcomers eager to explore timeless hard bop sounds.
Duke Pearson was a pivotal figure in the evolution of modern jazz during the 1960s. Not only did he contribute as a gifted pianist, but also as an arranger and producer for Blue Note Records. His collaborations with legends such as Donald Byrd, Art Farmer, and Stanley Turrentine have left an indelible mark on jazz history. Albums like "Wahoo!" and "Sweet Honey Bee" further cemented his reputation for innovation within the genre.
Universal Import is known worldwide for its commitment to delivering high-quality music releases across genres. With decades of experience sourcing rare gems from international catalogs, Universal Import ensures that music lovers can access iconic albums otherwise difficult to find outside their country of origin.
This is the tenth studio album by the pianist/arranger/composer and without any doubt "The right Touch" (1967) is one of his best. Duke Pearson writes for an all-star octet (with Freddie Hubbard, James Spaulding and Stanley Turrentine to name just a few). The original Duke Pearson compositions are full of colour and at the same time quite challenging. Next to "Wahoo", this cd is a must have. Highly recommended.
