Philippine Cartoons: Caricature of the American Era

McCoy Tyner, in full Alfred McCoy Tyner, also called Sulaimon Saud, (born December 11,
1938, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.—died March 6, 2020, New Jersey), American jazz pianist,
bandleader, and composer, noted for his technical virtuosity and dazzling improvisations.

Tyner began performing with local jazz ensembles while in his mid-teens. He met saxophonist John
Coltrane in 1955 and, after a brief stint (1959) with a group led by Art Farmer and Benny Golson, helped
Coltrane form his renowned quartet in 1960. Tyner developed his signature strong pentatonic chord-
playing style and lightning-fast runs during his years with Coltrane. In addition, the group began
incorporating elements of African and other musical genres into their playing style.

Alfred W. McCoy studied Southeast Asian history at Yale University. In 1971 he was commissioned to

co
write a book on the opium trade in Laos. During his research he discovered that the French equivalent of

eH w
the Central Intelligence Agency (SDECE) financed all their covert operations from the control of the
Indochina drug trade. McCoy also found evidence that after the United States replaced the French in

o.
rs e
Southeast Asia, the CIA also became involved in this trade. As he later pointed out: "Their mission was to
ou urc
stop communism and in pursuit of that mission they would ally with anyone and do anything to fight
communism."
