An excellent bassist, Avery Sharpe is best known for his longtime association with <a href="spotify:artist:2EsmKkHsXK0WMNGOtIhbxr">McCoy Tyner</a>'s trio. He originally played piano (starting when he was eight) and accordion, switching to electric (and eventually acoustic) bass a few years later. At the University of Massachusetts, Sharpe had the opportunity to study with <a href="spotify:artist:3mBoT9nTZ12JQPfrOrwD3p">Reggie Workman</a>, and he gigged with <a href="spotify:artist:375zxMmh2cSgUzFFnva0O7">Wynton Marsalis</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3t58jfUhoMLYVO14XaUFLA">Pat Metheny</a>. Sharpe first teamed up with <a href="spotify:artist:2EsmKkHsXK0WMNGOtIhbxr">McCoy Tyner</a> in his early-'80s sextet, and has been a member of the pianist's trio since 1984. In addition, Sharpe has led one session for Sunnyside (1988) and a pair of CDs for his JKNM label. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
