The Look of Love is an album by jazz saxophonist Stanley Turrentine recorded for the Blue Note label in 1968 and arranged by Duke Pearson and Thad Jones.[2]
AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars with the review by Stephen Cook stating, "With his flexible phrasing and muscular tone, Turrentine dives into the lush arrangements... Purists who usually cringe at late-'60s jazz dates like this (yes, there is a Beatles cover here) might be pleasantly surprised. For those who feel Bacharach and Jimmy Webb provide fine material for jazz, then The Look of Love is a must".[3]
Recorded on April 15, 1968 (1, 4, 10), May 2, 1968 (3, 5, 7-8) and May 13, 1968 (2, 6, 9), with string section overdubbed on May 27, 1968.
