'Peeps' With 'CHICK' COREA In Our Basket For Easter....Sure, Off To 'Spain'

by Alberto Cabello Mayero cc, see link
Happy Easter, did the Easter Bunny visit you guys last night? There was more than chocolate eggs and peeps in our basket....WOW, there was another 'CHICK' COREA and HERE and 'Spain' 1972 [thanks luchozepp.]...Steve loves to do this tune, so we're going over it right now, before we start in, in the green house and garden.
Who is this 'Chick' anyway.....well, he's cool. WIKIPEDIA says he's " is an American jazz and fusion pianist, keyboardist, and composer." I know that he had his own band called 'Into Forever', that he created in the '70's....that's who's doing 'Spain' on the link above, I bet, that's his most well-known tune  . I'll look up more for this post.
Corea was born in the U.S.A., his father was a jazz trumpeter. So, As a child, Chick' was exposed to alot of jazz by his father. When he was 4 years old he started the piano and later [8] the drums. He learned to use the piano as a percussion instrument. Steve says Corea's tunes have a 'pulse' to them..' the pulse on the bass is not on ones, it's ands."...whatever that means?{Jan] You musicians will know. O.K? Most of his stuff has a 'latin' sound to it, that I really like...it's again, Jan.
Corea played gigs in high school, wearing an old tuxedo that his father gave him...He played HORACE SILVER's and HERE stuff in a trio at a local [New York] jazz club. An early recording of his was a album with BLUE MITCHELL, it features Chick's tune ' You Stepped Out of a Dream' [thanks 1blue1]....I'll try and find a copy and post it.
I read he's won aleast one GRAMMY, and I personality love all his stuff with BELLA FLECK and HERE and BOBBY McFERRIN and HERE . I'll post some music video links below and feature the video 'Spain'.from  luchozepp. Here's the only thing that the video page says:"Uploaded on Jul 27, 2008
