Reviews
Another energetic passionate McCoy post-bop album driven by his trademark pounding left hand chords & fluid right hand flourishes with some trax in a small group setting, others with a big band & most featuring a backing choral vocal group (think Sergio Mendes). Excellent supporting musos. Produced by the unsung Orin Keepnews.
Classic Tyner!
Edited one year agoAs the others have said, an awesome and slept on album in this man's legendary catalog. I was first introduced to this album when I recently purchased it for $2 as a still sealed original.
Love the sense of urgency and passion, especially the powerful drums and McCoy's hammering piano chords on the closing track.
Tyner's 70s work on Milestone truly deserves a reappraisal.
Edit: This album kicks ASS
Very good and very, very underrated spiritual jazz album by McCoy Tyner and a chorus of men and women doing the "lalala" wordless part.
Amazing album, nearly all tracks feature a chorus of voices singing wordless vocals which acts pretty much like it's own section in a big band...this might put hard core Jazz fans off but if you like Charles Stepney's vocal arrangements for Rotary Connection (this is similar-ish) and are looking for some exciting Jazz then this is a must! Tyner's piano playing is exhilarating here it must be said too.
