Fly with the Wind is a 1976 album by jazz pianist McCoy Tyner, his ninth to be released on the Milestone label. It was recorded in January 1976 and features performances by Tyner with a trio, woodwinds and a full string section. The 2008 CD reissue added two alternate takes as bonus tracks.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states that the album "...has plenty of memorable moments and is a surprising but logical success; Tyner's orchestral piano blended with the strings very well." Chris Sheridan of Jazz Journal thought the album "possesses a winning boldness and vitality". He commended Tyner, whose music he described as "thickly-textured, and both melodically and rhythmically complex", but criticized the "ostinato motif" of "You Stepped out of a Dream", describing it as "a little mundane".
