A band over 50 years in the making, Gary Bartz, Larry Willis, Buster Williams, and Al Foster had performed together countless times in different combinations and contexts over their storied careers, but it wasn\u2019t until September 2014 that they appeared as a quartet. The occasion that night was a tribute to McCoy Tyner, and the results were so inspired and the response so overwhelming that they knew right away they had something worth keeping. As pianist Larry Willis puts it, \u201cI don\u2019t think there are any bands that are doing quite what we\u2019re doing right now.\u201d Now, their unique chemistry and musicianship is documented on Search for Peace. It features selections by John Coltrane (\u201cImpressions\u201d), Jackie McLean (\u201cCapuchin Swing\u201d), Benny Carter (\u201cSummer Serenade\u201d), Billy Strayhorn (\u201cLotus Blossom\u201d) and, of course, the moving title track by Tyner (\u201cSearch for Peace\u201d) Gary Bartz contributes two compositions (\u201cUncle Bubba\u201d which Gary performed with McCoy and \u201cSoulstice\u201d) and there are two standards (\u201cCrazy She Calls Me\u201d and \u201cI Wish I Knew\u201d which Tyner famously recorded with Coltrane). It is a well-chosen and balanced set, but the selections are somewhat beside the point; this all-star quartet makes everything sound like magic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HEADS OF STATE, FEATURING FOUR OF THE MOST RESPECTED\u00a0and admired jazz artists of our time releases its first recording Search for Peace.
