The new CD from Jazz / R&B sax icon Gerald Albright, titled Sax For Stax, hit stores this week. Sax features 11-tracks; 8 covers of Stax classics and 3 originals that pay tribute to the legendary Memphis-based record label that defined Southern soul from the 1950s to the mid 1970s.

Albright delivers his own signature twist on each song that solidifies his position as one of the most respected and sought after saxophonists to straddle the fence of jazz and R&B.
