RIP to the mighty McCoy Tyner. Besides his work with the John Coltrane Quartet and solo work there's a whole lot more. (December 11, 1938 - March 6, 2020)

Huge loss. One of my big regrets is not going to see him after a Dead show at MSG, some friends went but I needed a quiet place to experience re-entry.

He was a mountain of a
He was a normal sized man but he was a mountain of a presence on the stage and in the music. Bigger than a giant. One of the very greatest of all time. A very few maybe as good, none better.
He had a sound all his own, very powerful & percussive, but also so intelligent, so articulate. He could lead, he could float, he could follow. He could sound orchestral, he could make one perfectly placed note or chord sound like a hundred.
I saw him many times in different settings, including playing solo, which is damn hard to pull off. He pulled it off. I never left a show of his disappointed, I almost always walked out in awe at how sound could be made to sound that way. That it could sound that good.
And he played on one of my favorite albums and one of the great jazz records ever, Wayne Shorter's Juju.
I fear Wayne isn't far behind his old friend. That day, like this one, will be a sad day.
Or a joyous day, that we were so lucky to be exposed to these beyond brilliant performers.
On it goes.

Such a great musician. In 2003 at Yoshi's I saw McCoy Tyner trio with Stanley Clarke and Billy Cobham. For 55 minutes, I was completely captivated and mind blown by the best music I ever heard!

Thinking of McCoy Tyner.
Thinking of McCoy Tyner.
One year ago, our last show. 75 Dollar Bill. Sunburned Hand of the Man (feat. J. Mascis). Weeping Bong Band.
Watching Los Lobos doesn't quite make up for it.
Still thinking of McCoy Tyner, like Rick Brown and Che Chen.

(Just for clarity's sake, it was one year ago that Tyner died)
And I agree with Turtle. I think at times we forget musicians are human and we take them for granted, always thinking they'll be there and be as good as they ever were. This past lost year has had me thinking often of the greats in all genres who don't have time to waste, sitting around, wearing masks and streaming from their living rooms. Let's hope we can get back to life sooner than later so we all can have at least one more hurrah with the legends.
Still though, there are many great players who are not in their '70s or '80s. For jazz piano I particularly love Brad Mehldau, Taylor Eigsti & Jason Moran. They may not be McCoy Tyner or Chick Corea, but those guys can REALLY play.
Lots of others as well. I look forward to supporting them again soon.
GET VACCINATED!!!

Do u bastards in this thread
Do u bastards in this thread want me to weep for McCoy tyner and 4winds?
Is that what u bastards want?
also, while I have u bastards here, I recommend tyner's early 70's solo albums featuring Azar Lawrence.
u bastards should probably also support Azar's current projects.
