 Buy McCoy Tyner With Stanley Clarke & Al Foster
McCoy is absolutely in top shape here and in particular I like Al Fosters backing of McCoys sometimes unpredictable harmonic and rhytmic moves...this can be heard of the "heavey" swinger "Will you still be mine"..
Stanley Clarke and Al Foster are both wonderful musicians, but I don't they mesh well with Tyner for this session.
While Foster is capable of playing many styles, Clarke seems to want to play his steady rock/funk style.

Gleich zu Beginn des Albums wird das Einfühlungsvermögen des Trios deutlich, wenn Bassist Stanley Clarke und Schlagzeuger Al Foster in 'Trane-like' ein federndes Rhythmusgerüst erzeugen, zu dem Tyners Einsätze wie übers Wasser tanzende Steine klingen.
Vielleicht ist es aber gerade Foster, dem dieses musikalische Rendezvous seinen Erfolg verdankt.
