Chick Corea

• 3X VINYL EDITION

On an early trailer for this previously unheard show from 2018, Chick Corea remarked on how much the Akoustic Band had evolved since the group’s formation in 1987, and how, with age, “a new richness” had entered the music that they all were enjoying.

It was the first time Corea, bassist John Patitucci and drummer Dave Weckl had played together as a trio in 20 years, and what the pianist was referring to was a fresh, more matured, approach all three players had to the music. Here was a band in an intimate 300-seater venue, stretching out over old standards and classics from Corea’s vast catalogue, but in a noticeably more loose and daring way.
