Just Feelin'

by McCoy Tyner

Overview

Pianist McCoy Tyner's first recording with his long-time bassist Avery Sharpe, this trio set with drummer Louis Hayes is somewhat obscure due to the Palo Alto label soon becoming obsolete. The music however deserved far better fate for this is a particularly strong set. Tyner performs two of his more basic originals (the title cut and "Blues For Basie") along with Sharpe's "Berliner" and four melodic standards. The project served as the real beginning of Tyner's current conservative but still lively music in which his formerly avant-garde style became very much a part of the jazz tradition. Worth searching for. ~ Scott Yanow
