Affordable warmth, this is the ideal way to add a substantial amount of top-notch McCoy to your collection without spending much. I'm really into the idea of two distinct explorations featuring different trios, as this format is perfect for highlighting his playing. In my opinion, this would be worth so much more if the art direction and title were a bit more imaginative. At first glance, it seemed like a low-budget compilation on the shelves, but after a closer look, I discovered a real treasure.
Fantastic vinyl pressing, sounds INCREDIBLY LOUD and crisp. The Japanese really know how to do justice to great performances with records like this.
Pyrotechnics is spot on! Incredible and overlooked 2LP collection that's seriously undervalued.
McCoy Tyner is like a fine wine, just getting better with time. Here we are in '77, with two different trio lineups: 1) Ron Carter, Tony Williams, and 2) Eddie Gomez, Jack DeJohnette. Disc 1 is a wild ride, with a trio sound as full as three musicians can possibly create. The playing is outstanding, with Tyner leading the way through a mix of classic tunes and two originals. 'Control' is the key here, as each musician could take over, but instead lifts the whole trio together. "Moments Notice" is truly something special. Disc 2 is just incredible. It's got two standards and the rest are Tyner's own compositions. The trio plays with such precision and excitement, they're like a well-oiled machine. If this were a drum battle, DeJohnette might just edge out the mighty Tony Williams, though both bring the same energy—Jack just does it with more finesse. It's a joy to hear these two drummers in action. The recordings are crisp and well-balanced. The bass is punchy, and the drums have great dynamics. The piano sometimes clips (on B2), but I doubt the engineer knew he'd need to adjust the levels during recording. If you love McCoy Tyner's cascading pentatonics, quartal harmony, and mind-bending harmonies, this is the album for you. 5 frickin' stars, no doubt!
