McCoy Tyner: Land of Giants
by Joel Roberts
One of the three most influential pianists of his generation (along with Keith Jarrett and Chick Corea), McCoy Tyner is a true jazz giant. And more than 40 years after gaining widespread acclaim as the pianist in the classic John Coltrane Quartet, the 65-year-old Tyner shows no signs of slowing down. Like fellow Coltrane alum Elvin ...
McCoy Tyner: Land Of Giants
by C. Michael Bailey
Duke Ellington once said that there were only two types of music: good and bad. A very good friend of mine once altered this sentiment by saying that the only types of music were good and better. I vote for the latter summation. In the past several years of music writing, the vast majority of jazz ...
McCoy Tyner: 13th House
by Steven Robinson

McCoy Tyner: The Greeting
by AAJ Staff

For those acquainted with Tyner's 1970s Milestone output after all, this live date featuring his sextet from the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco (1978) is definitely one of the more worthwhile Milestone Tyners. In contrast to several of McCoy's Milestone ...

by Mark Corroto
The first family of jazz, the Marsalis of New Orleans, have seemingly been in the eye of a musical hurricane for the past twenty years. With the news that Saxophonist Branford Marsalis and his father Ellis Marsalis had severed their ties with Sony music, comes the announcement that they have formed the independent label Marsalis Music. ...
