McCoy Tyner playing one of my favorite standards with Bob Cranshaw and Mickey Roker at Newport. I usually prefer Tyner with at least a quartet because an additional horn or two adds some extra depth to his chromatic playing. Near the song's end, Tyner hints at his more eccentric style that I associate with his Coltrane years and solo work in the the late 1960s and 1970s. The dependable Bob Cranshaw also gets a little solo, too, which is standard but gets the job done. Unforutnately, Coltrane never recorded "All of You" with Tyner on piano, but I can see it going even better than Wynton Kelly's accompaniment.
