This stimulating LP has an interesting combination of players. It may be the only recording to include both pianist McCoy Tyner and his successor with the John Coltrane Quartet, Alice Coltrane (who adds atmosphere with her harp). The set also matches the young altoist Gary Bartz with Wayne Shorter (doubling on tenor and soprano), whom he succeeded in Miles Davis' group, and reunites Shorter and bassist Ron Carter, and Tyner and drummer Elvin Jones.

McCoy Tyner's Extensions is the polar opposite. Although the term "concept album" is reminiscent of wretched excesses inflicted on an unsuspecting public by self-indulgent rockers and greedy music executives, it does apply here. The four tracks of Extensions, though wildly disparate, knit together into a perfectly integrated whole that casts a very particular kind of spell.
