Chick Corea dead at 79

[hal2kilo]

I got disappointed in the rock scene, and started listening to a lot of jazz fusion and seemed to fit right in when I was living in Chicago. I'm not sure if it started with listening to the Mahavishnu Orchestra and John McLaughlin or Miles Davis but Return to Forever was foremost in my mind at the time which evolved to Chick Corea. But, then I heard the Sultans of Swing and everything changed back again. RIP

Chick Corea, Jazz Keyboardist and Innovator, Dies at 79 (Published 2021)

When jazz and rock fused in the 1970s, he was at the forefront of the movement. But he never abandoned his love of the acoustic piano.

Another Scientologist gone.

No tears.

In condolence threads, a bit of decorum and respect for the passed is demanded.

Loved Chick Corea, esp with his Return to Forever band lineup with Stanley Clarke and Al Di Meola back in the 70s.

Yea, I forgot about Al. Classically trained Spanish guitarist on acid.
