Following sideman appearances with pianist Horace Parlan in the early 1960s, Booker Ervin cut two stellar Blue Note records as a leader in 1968 including Tex Book Tenor which had to wait nearly 40 years until 2005 for it's first standalone release. With a sleek post-bop quintet featuring trumpeter Woody Shaw, pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Jan Arnet, and drummer Billy Higgins, the Texas-born saxophonist slices through a set of compelling bandmember originals including Barron's sinuous tune \"Gichi\" and Shaw's lilting waltz \"In a Capricornian Way,\" as well as Ervin's lovely ballad \"Lynn's Tune\" and the hard-swinging \"Den Tex,\" named for his hometown of Denison.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Gichi \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Den Tex \u003cbr\u003e1.3 In a Capricornian Way \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Lynn's Tune \u003cbr\u003e1.5 204\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ervin Booker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40448832962631,"sku":"44111977","price":38.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4291054-3114494.jpg?v=1711823219","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/ervin-booker-tex-book-tenor-blue-note-tone-poet-series","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
