2026 Record Store Day limited edition double album on 180g black vinyl
Limited to 3000 copies
Official, unreleased record that is hand-numbered limited edition and
includes an illustrated insert. This release features the historically
proven trio of McCoy Tyner accompanied by Avery Sharpe and Aaron Scott,
with Bobby Hutcherson on vibraphone. This double LP is pressed on black,
180g vinyl.
McCoy Tyner (1938-2020) and Bobby Hutcherson
(1941-2016), two of the greatest jazz figures from the 1960s onwards,
officially shared the spotlight only twice, but their collaboration,
which began in 1966, ran like a karst river through both their careers.
The two had met, albeit in passing, in the early 1960s: in recent times,
Tyner recalled seeing Hutcherson play in the L.A. based Gerald Wilson's
big band, while Hutcherson - during his New York period - was a
constant presence at John Coltrane's gigs at Birdland.
Three tracks
composed by Tyner, one by Hutcherson and three great standards make up
the programme of this never-before-released live recording.
In this
concert in Perugia, the vigor of both is still intact and can be felt:
supported by the powerful rhythm of Avery Sharpe and Aaron Scott -
charter members of Tyner's trio at the time - the pianist and
vibraphonist offer us a memorable evening that this writer, who was
present at the concert, has continued to remember with enormous pleasure
over the years, well before this recording was released by Red, making
it available to the whole world. We are sure that those who hear it for
the first time will appreciate it just as much as we did. (Luca Conti,
Musica Jazz director, from liner notes)
