@vladaroo: thanks as always.  Sure am proud.  The soloing could have been a bit cleaner but more important to me was the overall sound, and captured that well.  Have you seen McCoy?  His work with Trane's quartet is superb and groundbreaking.  He has an album of standards recorded when he was 20 in the very early 60s that is burning too.  Everything is.  He even recorded with Santana

@de-amazing-concrete: thanks so much Concrete :)) McCoy a hero of mine

@tytlblues: thanks Tom - McCoy is one of my most important influences.  Means a lot.

@tytlblues: always cocktail hour in my book...what time is it now?:)

@tytlblues: nothing like being smooth.  Ask Carlos

Fantastic Jamie! McCoy Tyner, easily anybody's hero right? You did a great job in this typical constant flow and timing!

Here's a tribute to the legendary pianist McCoy Tyner, one of my most important musical inspirations.  Check out his recordings with John Coltrane from the early '60s, and the power and creativity of his lines, using highly percussive fifths and fourths in his left hand, and fourths and pentatonic scales in his right.  One of the most important jazz pianist of the 20th century, McCoy continues to inspire to this day...
