Friday Music Video: McCoy Tyner
It’s Friday, I’m on a Honey Do Vacation, and it’s raining. A perfect time for the blues tinged melodies of McCoy Tyner, playing with his Trio. For me, McCoy is the perfect example of the the juxtaposition of melodic themes, envoking feelings of both hope and futility, taking us on a strange and wonderful emotional ride.
McCoy gained prominence playing with John Coltrane, and over the years has played with virtually all of the contemporary greats. If you’re already a fan, enjoy, if you aren’t I encourage you to delve deeper into an absolutely wonderful lifetime of musical accomplishment. His “Fly Like the Wind” album is one of my top 10 must have desert island records.

Friday Music Video - The Bridge - Brother Don’t
These guys are tops on my list today. Horns, a funky beat and hint of bluegrass around the edges; then you throw in a bit of Hammond B3 and I’m hooked. They’ve got a free gig in Harrisburg, PA today.

Friday Music Video - Lynyrd Skynyrd - Workin’ for MCA
This one’s for Mark…enjoy…
Okay, replace the words “MCA” with the words “Geffen” and it’s still pretty much appropriate, even though the record companies have come down more than a couple notches.
Listening and watching, I’m reminded how tight they were. These guys obviously loved to play…
The bonus track at the end is “I Ain’t the One”
