| McCoy Tyner: Changes | by Leon Kerkstra | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Tyner's composition 'Changes' has been recorded for the first time on the album 'Major Changes', by Frank Morgan and the McCoy Tyner Trio (1987). But it was the release of 'Infinity' that introduced this song to a wide public. McCoy states: "Changes is a happy composition and lots of fun to play. Another way to put it is, 'lets keep on swinging' ". Well if you check out this sample of 'Changes' recorded at a performance at the North Sea Jazz Festival 1996, You'll hear it is indeed funky as hell ! The chords :
