1977: McCoy Tyner expands the canvas with voices and brass, orchestrating his volcanic piano language on a larger scale - the quartal thunder scored for choir and horns, the modal surge given orchestral wings. The seventies Milestone run was one of the most consistent label chapters of the decade, and this is among its most ambitious entries: Tyner as composer-arranger, thinking in textures and masses without ever losing the rhythmic engine that drives everything he touches. Records like this show how much unexplored territory his post-Coltrane career actually covered while critics were busy looking elsewhere. US Milestone pressing, and a rewarding deep cut for the Tyner shelf.
