[Hidden Gem] McCoy Tyner Together

McCoy Tyner — Together

McCoy Tyner

Together

Milestone / 1979

Listen on Qobuz

I had never heard of Together, never heard a note of it, bought the LP blindly in my local record store, and I have been spinning it every day since.

What a record!

Then again, what else would you expect when you see names like Tyner, Stanley Clarke, Freddie Hubbard, and Bobby Hutcherson? And that's actually why I bought it: because of the names.

Amd they don't disappoint. Together is a powerful hard-bop album. What's more, it doesn't feature any short tracks. Most of its six tracks are well over the seven-minute mark, giving everyone plenty of room to play.

Honestly, well worth seeking this one out.
