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.
The Allmusic review by Stephen Cook awarded the album 4 stars and states "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".
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.
