Title: Chick Corea

I really enjoyed Chick's 'Return to Forever' jazz-fusion & work with Miles Davis.

R.I.P, maestro!

I knew that Drum and Bugle Corps liked him. I did not know there was an old connection.
He grew up in Chelsea MA and played bugle in a local drum corps.

I'm a life long hard rock fan...but other musical forms have their uses...I used to listen to Chick and other fusionists or classical music when reading college text books and writing papers...jazz while in the tub and imbibing a favorite drink...can handle pretty much everything except d***o and gangsta (c)rap.

R.I.P. Chick
