McCOY TYNER, TIME FOR TYNER (Blue Note). The former Coltrane pianist here plays in a quartet that includes Vibist Bobby Hutcherson. Tyner's composition African Village is a free fall into the heart of rhythms that pound and shift as McCoy and Bobby superimpose eddying patterns. May Street moves along with jaunty strut, shadowed, however, by a tension of eerie chords. As for standard tunes, Tyner does a pensive I Didn't Know What Time It Was and then zooms off in The Surrey with the Fringe...
...modern jazz piano. His music is filled with gently dissonant surgings, expressive rippling lines that are as romantic as they are atonal, and intuitive, crosshatched rhythms that emerge and then break off. Helping him project this engaging moodiness are John Gilmore's thin-edged tenor sax, Bobby Hutcherson's delicate vibes, the attentive probings of Bassist Richard Davis and the irregular cymbals of Drummer Joe Chambers. The group's finest moments come in The Groits, which, despite its ugly name, consists of lovely integrated weavings of Hill's almost Monkish chords, Hutcherson's melodic accents...

Anyway, three Yalies are enough for any team, so Singleton goes to the second eleven, along with teammates Hardy Will (center), John Hutcherson (end), and Ken Wolfe (halfback...
That leaves some line slots, and here at last Harvard comes in. Not at the ends, where Bob Federspiel of Columbia and Dick Laine of Brown make the first pair, with Hutcherson and Jon Greenwalt of Penn the second team. But the Crimson's Bob Pillsbury is a first-string tackle, with Eric Nelson on the second team, and Terry Lenzner and Bill Swinford are the second-string guards...
