As Living Blues writer Lee Hildebrand testified, “Hanck is one of the most formidable saxophonists in the blues and soul business. He has a virile tone and attack and an uncanny command of upper-register notes.” But whether it is a joyous jump blues romp or a steamy slow dance of a stroll–this is the kind of music that has mattered to the tall tenor man all his life…
Hanck wails like a big dog on sax and vocals..." -Paul Libertore, Marin Independent-Journal "His fiery reed work, beautiful tone and effortless, inventive melodies make for thoroughly enjoyable listening.... his voice is a marvel. He can make it growl, ache, croon, moan, and tease, and then some. It is a superb instrument in its own right." - Joseph Jordan, Golden Gate Blues News (SF)
Three-time Blues Music Award winner, Terry Hanck is in the modern pantheon of tenor sax greats. His sound is at the nexus of classic New Orleans R&B, Chicago blues and soul, West Coast honk and Memphis rock and roll. The guy has a voice that still makes women swoon.
