Notes:
Of all the American jazz artists who relocated to Europe and Scandinavia in the 1950s and 1960s, Sahib Shihab remains one of the most highly regarded and versatile, yet least celebrated. Although mostly known as a key member of the Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland Big Band, Europe's leading big band of the 1960s, Shihab had a career that lasted 40 years characterised by an adaptability and individuality that marked him out as a player of exceptional skill on the baritone, alto and soprano saxophones as well as flute.

Sentiments was recorded in Denmark in March 1971 and was originally released on the Storyville label. The album features Shihab alongside Danish super-bass man Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, and two fellow Americans, drummer Jimmy Hopps and pianist Kenny Drew (like Shihab, Drew also settled in Denmark and recorded extensively for Danish label Steeplechase). Sentiments was Shihab's last album as leader, although he did go on to record projects as collaborator with the likes of Jef Gilson and Phil Woods. (Tony Higgins)
