Ishmael Slapowitz Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 any fellow forum members who appreciate Chick Corea solo albums (not solo performances, just not co-billed)... I especially like his early to mid 70's period, with albums like My Spanish Heart, The Mad Hatter, Friends, etc. Also his 90's resurgence...great artist! Link to comment
Paul R Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Does Return to Forever featuring Chick Corea count? If so, then _Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy_. The Leprechaun is also fun, in a weird sort of way... (grin) Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat DAC. Robert A. Heinlein Link to comment

Musicophile Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Count me in. I don’t listen to him that often but he’s brilliant both in groups and solo. Check out my blog at musicophilesblog.com - From Keith Jarrett to Johannes Brahms Link to comment
Ralf11 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 well I have 8 albums with him on it, but only 1 is close to solo (Trilogy, so it is off by 2) what am I missing in w.r.t. to solo music? Ishmael Slapowitz 1 Link to comment

He had a period in the 70's with a nice run...Friends, My Spanish Heart, The Mad Hatter, The Leprechaun, all good stuff, and an really excellent taste 60's album with a stellar cast, Inner Space, Link to comment

Even Chinese Butterfly from 2017 is a trip! https://www.allmusic.com/artist/chick-corea-mn0000110541/discography Link to comment
