John Hell's Live Bootleg Bonanza

Monday's 6-8PM Pacific

Tonight on the show I want to celebrate the life of pianist and composer Chick Corea, who passed, who passed away last week at the age of 79.

Corea came to prominence when manned the keys during the birth of the fusion-era Miles Davis band. This is the band who recorded the legendary Bitches Brew. He went on to co-found and lead the jazz-fusion group Return to Forever. He is also known to have mastered many genres of music, having won a record number of Grammy Awards for his contribution to the music industry.

He is considered a major influence on the piano and keyboard synthesizer.

I have a classic Return to Forever show to share, recorded at the Jazz Workshop in Boston, May 15, 1973, followed by a show with guitarist Paco de Lucia from Japan in 1982.
