The aptly titled Inception is the astounding album on which the great pianist McCoy Tyner debuted as a leader. Though only in his mid- 20s, Tyner plays with a power and confidence that bespeaks his musical maturity. He is joined by the mighty bassist Art Davis and the uncanny drumming powerhouse known as Elvin Jones, Tyner s band mate with John Coltrane. In all, this session is a true classic in the piano trio format and a particularly special recording of one of the instrument s most celebrated masters.
