Hi everybody, I am recently getting in to the playing of mccoy tyner. However it's quite a challenge to get this kind of sound in to my playing, so I was wondering if anybody has some transcriptions, licks, excersises etc. To help me incorporate this style into my improvisation. Nihonjin

practice two fourth voicings and two pentatonic push and pull runs and if the pain persists call me in the morning.

Anyone know any info on his playing on the John Coltrane album OLE ?

I love McCoy Tyner and never miss him when he comes to play at Jazz Alley in Seattle. There is always a line of Japanese students to get his autograph. I like the new trio.  The old one used to be great, but I think they got tired of each other.
