I'm jonesin' for McCoy

McCoy Tyner's website shows he is in Europe for the next few months (lucky them).

Not having seen him for a while, and having heard that he is not in the best of health, I was wondering how he's doing? Any new records planned? Any U.S. appearances on the horizon?

Honor the greats while they are with us.

He has something like 4 records in the can coming out soon.
One recorded live at Yoshi's.
One with Eddie Palmieri.
One with a bunch of guest guitarists, and I think something else, oh a solo disc.
He has dates in the US later in the year, and from what I hear (not witnessed) his health is better. Last I heard, his trio was Eric Gravatt and Gerald Cannon.

I don't know when, but am pretty sure it's soon.
He has his own label, it'll be through Halfnote records.
