Seminal jazz album. As the first of Tyner's recordings with Blue Note, The Real McCoy marks a turning point in his musical personality: earlier albums were more restrained, less... explosive. In the words of producer Alfred Lion:
- [a] pure jazz session. There is absolutely no concession to commercialism, and there's a deep, passionate love for the music embedded in each of the selections.
Featuring tenor sax from Joe Henderson, the ever-present Ron Carter on bass, and our Lord and Savior Elvin Jones on drums.
