Click the play button to listen
Chick Corea began recording as a sideman for artists like Mongo Santamaria, Blue Mitchell, Herbie Mann and Cal Tjader in 1962. In 1966, he started his career as a leader, while still touring with Stan Getz. Like many others, his studio work and touring with Miles Davis from 1968—1970 raised his profile, leading him to a career that split between the newly emerging electric fusion music and acoustic pursuits.Playlist
