In Memoriam: Chick Corea: In Memoriam: Chick Corea
The music world lost NEA Jazz Master Chick Corea who, as Charles Lloyd Tweeted, "left town" on February 9, 2021. Chick was always generous with his time granting AAJ several interviews over the years. Jim Worsley's October interview with Chick would represent his last. A personal favorite of All About Jazz, we will miss Chick's music, his kind spirit and his positive energy. Barche Lamsel indeed!
