Comments: In the 70's, Corea began his fusion period with the band, Return To Forever, and would subsequently play larger venues for a more mainstream crowd. Nonetheless, his playing remained sharp and crisp, and his music never suffered from "selling out." He remained true to his vision of the day.

Comments: As all great artists will do, Chick Corea is constantly in flux, updating his vocabulary, creating new sounds. This recording highlights a new direction on his own record label, featuring many up-and-coming artists of the day.
