American pianist, composer, and band leader McCoy Tyner was born on December 11, 1938 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He became a prominent figure in the jazz world with his innovative style and virtuosic piano playing. Tyner's career spanned over six decades, during which he collaborated with legendary musicians such as Kenny Dorham, Red Garland, and Sonny Clark. His contributions to the genre earned him critical acclaim and numerous accolades. Sadly, McCoy Tyner passed away on March 6, 2020.

Tyner's music is often compared to that of other influential artists like Bud Powell and Art Tatum. He was known for his powerful left-hand chords and unique approach to improvisation. As a member of the iconic group Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, Tyner showcased his talent alongside fellow jazz greats including Joe Henderson and Freddie Hubbard.

The legacy of McCoy Tyner lives on through his extensive discography as a bandleader and sideman. His compositions continue to inspire aspiring musicians around the world. Whether performing solo or leading his own trio, Tyner's music remains an integral part of the jazz canon.

On his third Blue Note album pianist McCoy Tyner assembled a quartet with vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, bassist Herbie Lewis and drummer Freddie Waits for an album rich in ethereal textures that delivers visceral performances of three expansive Tyner originals and three radically reinvented standards.  This stereo Tone Poet Vinyl Edition was produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on sleeve.
