McCoy Tyner - The Seeker (with Bobby Hutcherson)

Red Records put this one out without any advance hype AFAIK.  I'm in, of course, and I'm sure many others here are also.

Thanks for the heads-up, @felser!

I didn’t realize this is a first time release. Might be interesting for sure 👍

Definitely interested, though the CD prices were on the high side.  Maybe things will settle down after RSD is over.

Any idea if there will be digital release eventually?

That sure looks good.  I have been a fan of the partnership of Tyner and Hutcherson, which happened many times over the span of their careers.  I would have liked a version of "African Village," but this record certainly looks like a worthy addition.

I saw this band on tour at the time. It was a fun show. My memory is a bit fuzzy, but I seem to remember Hutcherson stealing the show. I'm pretty sure I also Tyner & Hutcherson play a set as a duet in support of the CD, "Manhattan Moods", but it's been a while so my memory is a bit fuzzy on that.

I don't have Manhattan Moods in my collection, but I have heard it.  I found it not as impressive as I expected, but some nice moments--and one great performance in their reading of "Blue Monk."
