Follow-up:
I sincerely believe that McCoy Tyner belongs at the apex of Jazz pianists since he has been influenced by Art Tatum, Bud Powell, and Bill Evans. He brings the best of American 20th century Jazz harmony, composition and technique and African and Latin American rhythmic styles - all seamlessly blended together by a pianism that ranks right up there with the finest classical pianists.
*If a man wants God to hear his prayer quickly, then before he prays for anything else, even his own soul, when he stands and stretches out his hands towards God, he must pray with all his heart for his enemies. Through this action God will hear everything that he asks* -Abba Zeno-
*Protagoras: "Truth is subjective. What is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Your opinion is true by virtue of its being your opinion."
*Socrates: "My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you are in absolute error. Since this is my opinion, then according to your philosophy you must grant that it is true."
