Freddie Hubbard Quinter - Blues For DuaneRecorded Live at the Warsaw Jazz Festival 1991.Little did McCoy Tyner know in 1959 when he joined the Benny Golson-Art Farmer Jazztet that more than 30 years later he would replace Farmer in Warsaw Poland for a scheduled performance in the Operitka House for the Warsaw Jazz Festival. But he did and it was a rousing success. Tyner born in Philadelphia in 1938 began his study of piano at the early age of 13. At 21 he was already a professional but his international acclaim was first achieved when the pianist who uses African rhythms in his music joined John Coltrane's quartet. That 'gig' lasted from 1960 to 1965.
