McCoy Tyner
"African Village"
Playing at: Blue Note (131 W. 3rd St., Greenwich Village)
Get: Tickets (2 shows) | Directions
McCoy Tyner began his career as the unparalleled piano player in John Coltrane's legendary quartet, but in the 45 years since he left that group, Tyner has proven his talents as a leader and as one of the most influential pianists of the last half century. On this live recording from the San Francisco Jazz Festival's Spring Series in 2007, Tyner goes solo, opening the album with the unpredictable "African Village." Tyner glides and crashes his way through this complex original composition.
