Forces of Nature: Live at Slugs' is an unreleased live recording of jazz legends McCoy Tyner and Joe Henderson leading a stellar quartet with Henry Grimes (bass) and Jack DeJohnette (drums) at the hallowed lost NYC jazz shrine, Slugs' Saloon, in 1966. Recorded by legendary engineer Orville O'Brien (who recorded classic 1960s jazz albums by Freddie Hubbard, Charles Tolliver and Alice Coltrane), the tape has been in DeJohnette's personal archives for nearly 60 years and is now being released for the first time. Forces of Nature was produced for release by Zev Feldman, Jack DeJohnette and Lydia DeJohnette. An elaborate booklet includes rare photos by Francis Wolff, Raymond Ross and Robert Polillo, liner notes by acclaimed author and critic Nate Chinen, plus interviews and statements with DeJohnette, Jason Moran, Joe Lovano, Joshua Redman, Christian McBride, Nasheet Waits and Terri Lyne Carrington. 2 LP set.
