McCoy Tyner – Tender Moments (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Recorded in 1967, just two years after his landmark run with John Coltrane's quartet ended, Tender Moments captures Tyner stretching into ambitious orchestral territory while his harmonic language was still reshaping what jazz piano could mean. The rich brass voicings here point toward the bold, percussive direction he'd pursue through the 1970s, making this one of the more revealing documents of an artist in purposeful transition.
On Tender Moments, pianist/composer McCoy Tyner explored the colors and textures available, with an all-star cast: Lee Morgan (trumpet), Julian Priester (trombone), Bennie Maupin (tenor sax), James Spaulding (alto sax/flute), Bob Northern (French horn), Howard Johnson (tuba), Herbie Lewis (bass). Highlights include dedications to Coltrane and Monk, plus the stunning ballad "All My Yesterdays." Blue Note Tone Poet Series features all-analog, remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
