Al Turner - Earl Klugh, Kem

Al "The Bass Burner" Turner is no stranger to the international bass scene. Turner has been a bassist since the tender age of 12 and has played with countless soul, funk and jazz stars. The musician names Earl Klugh, Bob James and James Jamerson as his most important idols in music. Al Turner's powerful bass lines can be heard on recordings by Aretha Franklin, Oleta Adams, Anita Baker, Nancy Wilson, Randy Crawford, Gladys Knight, Bob James, Earl Klugh, Ron Isley, Kem and Patti LaBelle - and this list is no more than the tip of the iceberg! But Mr. Turner is also a successful composer and producer who has worked for artists such as Earl Klugh, Bob James, Kem, Tim Bowman, Edgar Wallace Jr., Guy Ensley and Ron Otis. When he's not working in the studio or touring, Al makes television appearances on shows such as "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno", "The View", "The Steve Harvey Show", "Good Morning America", "The Jimmy Kimmel Show", “The Arsenio Hall Show” or “The Mo'Nique Show.” In addition, “The Burner” has performed at the White House several times and released no less than five solo albums! Always at his side is his beautiful Sadowsky bass - an instrument that is perfect for conveying the great bassplayer’s musical vision to the ears of his audience. Thank you for being an integral part of our ever-growing Sadowsky family, Al!
