NYC: MCCOY TYNER & THE LATIN ALL-STARS AT THE BLUE NOTE TONIGHT & SUNDAY
McCoy Tyner & The Latin All-Stars (Gerald Cannon, bass; Francisco Mela, drums; Gary Bartz, sax; Steve Turre, trombone; Miguel Valdez, percussion) perform at THE BLUE NOTE (131 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-475-8592) on Friday, Saturday & Sunday, June 14th, 15th & 16th with shows at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. Jazz pianist McCoy Tyner is widely considered one of the finest and most influential pianists in jazz history. His signature booming left-hand and fleeting right created a unique sound that can be heard on his recordings as a sideman with the John Coltrane Quartet in the 1960s and on his 80-plus albums as a leader. Tyner's most recent project for McCoy Tyner Music/Half Note Records is his first solo effort in almost a decade titled Solo: Live From San Francisco. The release is the third for his label and features eleven solo vignettes recorded at the Herbst Theater in 2007. There is a $30-$45 cover.
