Chick Corea

Post Reply New Topic

I've heard only few of his albums (about 6, I think), but I totally agree with you. He's definitely one of the best. I like how unpredictable his style is.
I like first album of Elektric Band, too.

True. I think he's one of the best pianists alive today. And he recently got back together with the electric band.

Do you know Hiromi Uehara? I like her a lot, she's awesome pianist influenced greatly by Chick. Check out her music, I'm pretty sure you won't regret it.

Corea's amazing. I especially love anything that he does with Vinnie Colaiuta drumming. That's a technical match made in heaven.

Hiromi is good, but I have to say she's not in the real elite league.

I would say the benchmarks of that league are Keith Jarrett and Esbjorn Svensson.

Imo the late, great Svensson is the bee's knees.

Everyone should check out the Esbjorn Svensson Trio, I think they're (or were) really great.
