Kenny Garrett: Back To The Future
by Jason Crane
Detroit's Kenny Garrett is a restless man. Before he'd even released his 2006 Nonesuch album Beyond The Wall, he'd already moved on to a different band with a completely different repertoire. And it's always been like that for Garrett, who is constantly searching for new territory to mine and new corners of the world--both geographical and ...
McCoy Tyner: Guitars
by Mark F. Turner
Sometimes musicians make strange studio-fellows. When the esteemed pianist McCoy Tyner teams up with an illustrious rhythm section (drummer Jack DeJohnette and bassist Ron Carter) and five diverse and highly noted guitarists--(Bill Frisell, Marc Ribot, John Scofield, Derek Trucks and virtuoso banjoist, Bela Fleck)--the result is very special. Tyner's legacy is well documented ...
McCoy Tyner: Guitars
by Troy Collins
Pianist McCoy Tyner's dramatic arpeggios, thunderous bass pulses and modulated chord voicings have inspired generations of aspiring jazz musicians. An acoustic purist who sustained a viable career through the heavily electrified fusion era, Tyner has maintained impressive consistency in his performances and recordings since his seminal tenure in John Coltrane's classic mid-sixties quartet.Tyner's vast ...
McCoy Tyner: Fly With The Wind
by Glenn Astarita
Upon its release on LP in 1976, Fly With the Wind quickly became a significant part of pianist McCoy Tyner's growing canon. Played seemingly endlessly by fans, it's an album rarely cited as a classic from the '70s, since mainstream jazz was on the comeback trail from the difficult '60s. Nonetheless, this 24-bit remaster is one ...
McCoy Tyner: Quartet
by Jeff Stockton
It seems grossly unfair that the debonair, elegant elder statesman on the cover of Quartet, a document of the concerts McCoy Tyner and his band gave on Dec. 30th-31st, 2006 at Yoshi's in Oakland, would still be trying to live up to the reputation for excellence he established with the John Coltrane Quartet some forty-plus years ...

McCoy Tyner: Afro Blue
by John Kelman
While his days as a true innovator are long past, pianist McCoy Tyner, now approaching seventy, has continued to make fine music. In many ways, his post-1970s work has been more about stylistic breadth, contrasting sharply with the more focused modal inventions with John Coltrane in the 1960s that have made him so influential and have ...
