Inception
Mccoy Tyner
Acoustic Sounds Series edition
Recorded on January 10-11, 1962, at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, Inception marked McCoy Tyner's debut as a leader for Impulse! Records, introducing a cohesive new trio with bassist Art Davis anddrummer Elvin Jones, both colleagues from the Coltrane ensemble, whose familiarity lends the session its focused clarity. Across a six-track program featuring four Tyner originals ("Inception," "Sunset," "Effendi," and "Blues for Gwen") alongside "There Is No Greater Love" and "Speak Low," the trio setting foregrounds Tyner's distinctive voicings, pedal-point harmonies, and rhythmic drive, supported by Davis and Jones's firm, responsive interplay. Released in 1962 as Impulse! was rapidly expanding, the album established Tyner's identity as a bandleader and stands as an essential early statement in his solo discography.
