Blue Note artist of whom I was unaware. A recommendation from
Dan,the Jazz Shepherd’s latest you tube. That lad sure does know a lot
and once again I have too much time on my hands.
From the more bluesy side of the bn catalogue.
Buckshot la funke might sound a lot like Cannonball Aderley.
A couple of wonderful records. With more from Steeplechase.
On Qobuz

@Nick1940 - Thanks for posting this one - of interest !
As a matter of interest, I see Quboz have 3 versions of it available:-
Blue Note £6.99
Revolver Music Ltd £3.99
Music Manager £4.79 + HiRes version £7.19
apart from the HiRes, do you reckon there is any sound quality difference between the others?
Thanks
I have played the Blue Note versions. If buying download this must be the best option. The others can only be copies.
Lps and cds available.
JazzHouse Records have BN connoisseur cd for £5.00
And a Japanese cd for £10.00
One of each.

I did direct this thread to Frank’s life story a while ago.Well worth a quick read.
The credit for his re-emergence is often given to Michael Connolly and the Bosch series of policiers.

Couldn’t find said album on Qobuz but it lead me to this rather delightful one originally released in 1989…
AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
On McCoy Tyner’s first solo piano album in 16 years, the remarkable stylist really digs into six standards (including “Yesterdays,” “In A Mellow Tone” and “Don’t Blame Me”) and four of his originals (highlighted by “You Taught My Heart To Sing”). Although somewhat typecast as John Coltrane’s fiery pianist, Tyner at times on this record sounds romantic and in other spots hints a bit at Art Tatum. This is a rather special project from one of the finest jazz pianists of the past 35 years.
Enjoy

You might find it at a record store 
Not many of those around these days.
My turntable is long gone and the CD player is gathering dust.

I love to slow down after the stress of the day. So my CD player also catches dust, the streamer does the same. The turntables, however, are very busy.
