This guy is a badass of jazz, who worked for years with John Coltrane. This is the first album in a series of three where he will be collaborating with some of the top modern jazz artists. This time: Joe Lovano, Christian McBride, and Jeff “Tain” Waits. Next: John Scofield, Bill Frisell, Marc Ribot, Derek Trucks, and Bela Fleck. Then next fall: a new release from SF Jazz. It’s a McCoy fest, “the last musician touched by God.” –PeteWILL BERNARD
