Warm Tenor is an album by saxophonist Zoot Sims, recorded in 1978 and released by the Pablo label the following year.

[1][2][3][4] AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "The Pablo label was a perfect home for Zoot Sims during the second half of the '70s; the cool-toned tenor always sounded at his best in informal settings with small groups where he had the opportunity to stretch out.

This quartet set with pianist Jimmy Rowles, bassist George Mraz and drummer Mousey Alexander gives Sims a chance to interpret a variety of mostly underplayed standards".

[5] All About Jazz noted: "His Pablo period arguably garners less notice than the earlier stages of his career ...

This set and its predecessor, If I'm Lucky, are the picks of that stellar run, not to mention lasting paragons of tenor-plus-rhythm jazz of any era ... this session really, truly does belong in every jazz collection".
