Early 1970's electric fusion music CD. After his stint with Miles Davis and the early incarnations of Return to Forever with Flora Purim and Airto Moreira,Mr Corea slips into an all electric band with some very notable musicians. This line up would only last for a brief amount of time,before expanding his available keyboards,adding Mr. Al Dimeola and creating longer compositions for exploration. I am a fan of guitarist Mr. Bill Connors,his playing on this session is superb and is the only 'RTF' disc that displays his amazing guitar,before he moved on and Chick would replace him with the aforementioned Mr. Dimeola. Interestingly, months after this session,RTF bassist Stanley Clarke would release his first solo album with superb support from guitarist Mr. Bill Connors,keyboard wizard (Mahavishnu Orchestra) Mr.Jan Hammer and the legendary drummer Tony Williams. If one has interest in early electric fusion music this disc should be listened toRead full review

This music can easily offend some people, but if you understand music and know how breakdown what the musicians are trying to do you will know that this is a CLASSIC. SUPER GUITAR, EXCELLENT EXPLOSIVE DRUMS AND OF COURSE CHIC IS TRULY A MASTER AT WHAT HE DOES. Stanley clarke is just super.

Great deal on groundbreaking recording by Return To Forever which influenced musicians worldwide to new levels of creative pursuit...outstanding musicianship and compositions set RTF apart from many other technically skilled ensembles from this era!

I loved this "album" back in the day, just got it again, and still love it. Although everybody loved it when Al Dimeola replace Bill Conners on Guitar, I think Conners is great. Stanley Clarke, Lenny White, and of course Chick, who comps behind solos better than most people solo!
