Live in Warsaw (McCoy Tyner album)

Live in Warsaw (also released as Beautiful Love, The Lady from Caracas, Monk's Dream and At the Warsaw Jamboree) is a 1991 live album by McCoy Tyner that was released by Who's Who in Jazz. The album was recorded for a television broadcast by Polish Channel 1 (which has also been released as a DVD) in October 1991 at the Operatka House in Warsaw, Poland with a solo performance by Tyner. The Allmusic review by William Ruhlmann states that, "A virtual retrospective on a long career by a still-vital artist, Live in Warsaw offers the listener an opportunity to hear Tyner's mature reflections on the music of his past and present in an unfettered context".[3]
