I heard Chick Corea play live in Sydney in the 70s. Had a huge band of talented musicians. Strings horns, the whole thing. Every player a stand out. Sure opened my eyes and ears.

I first ran across his work when I was living in Calgary in the 1970's and the University FM station used to play tracks from Return to Forever a lot. It is still in the CD stacked in my car, great road trip music. RIP
