This week a tribute to the legendary McCoy Tyner, plus a dip in the archive and a new release. The great McCoy Tyner sadly passed on March 6th. With a stellar career, best known as part of the great John Coltrane Quartet, and with a respectable solo discography, he is one the giants of jazz in the late 20th and early 21st century. A brief look into a remarkable lifetime of music.

Also on the show great cuts from trumpet maestro Chet Baker and the great tenor saxophonist David Murray. There's also a track from the new album from Christopher Hollyday who returns with the second release since his come back.
