McCoy Tyner, Trident, 1975 on Milestone

Tyner (who plays harpsichord and celeste as well as piano) is joined here by Ron Carter (bass) and Elvin Jones (drums), and the album was produced by Orrin Keepnews. It was his eighth LP for Milestone after recording on Blue Note and Impulse! throughought the 60s. (Elvin Jones worked with Tyner in the John Coltrane quartet).

My copy is the Vinyl Me, Please edition from 2023, in the VMP Classics series, with lacquer cut by Ryan Smith at Sterling, and a listening notes booklet by Andy Beta, which is a Craft Recordings reissue.
