Return to Forever Interview

[RockinReeseBoyd]

THE fusion group! Awesome!

[123clanger]

this seems to me the new classical. rtf,

[modestvermin995]

Holy shit... Stanley Clarke knows what Youtube is...

[louiseduvee]

Return to Forever was so great. I saw this band about 25 times. They never did a bad song or concert. Thank you!

[samiegfunk1]

they are constantly writing for other people, always conscious of what they think we want to hear. when the fans really want something they've written for themselvs. we want to hear RTF, not RTF fans. this goes for all their solo stuff too. hard to explain. all i can say, its a very commercial way to approach a reunion. they could have done a lot better if they would have kept it simple.

they didnt even write any new pieces!

[DrShrinker]

Dammit! I missed the reunion??

[spookiemoonstar]

once again much heart love to your souls my beautiful brothers. make it even HARDER N HARDER SPIRITUAL

[tetrahedral13]

So good that they're playing together again. Not sure about the leather jackets though....almost hard to hear them speak over the squeaky jackets. Its a bit weird that they are all wearing one..... posers

[eladnel]

Great interview, but who's idea was that annoying reverse cymbal insert?

[IskenderKebabi]

living legends, I have seen Al Di Meola's concert twice in early 90s

[andersonearl]

four of the greatest musicains on the face of the planet......

[wardka]

How appropriate that they would hang out with Yes. Both bands created some fantastic complex music, just in slightly different genres. I think Al is one of those guys who just never ages, but they're all looking pretty fit to me compared to some of my prog rock heroes from the 70's.

[robbradley07]

Yo, is Al the youngest one out of them? Because he looks younger than everyone else

[freein2339]

Love their sound....

[WPhilaG]

I have tickets for the 8/1/08 show in Orlando... with a VIP pass to actually meet RTF at a 'meet-n-greet'... I can't wait!! I'm still stunned from their show in Philly >30 years ago.

[SonGotenEX]

I'm jealous. :(

I became a fan around the end of last year, I'm only 16. They are becoming a big influence on me.

[Lamhfada]

just my words... i know them for perhaps a year and when i saw them in london i was 16

RTF FTW!

[MightyMerold]

@SonGotenEX same here dude.....and wow im responding to a really old comment.....but im seeing them in september, i dont think al is gonna be with them though

[oliverandpj2pups]

Saw them at the Chicago Theater Friday night. Do not miss this performance. It was unlike anything I have ever witnessed live. Thanks for a night I shall NEVER forget!!!

[jamomo1371]

Just saw them in St. Louis last night. I implore everyone to see this show. Stanley did the upright-bass-solo-from-hell!! Don't expect them to sign autographs, though.

[miguelsoffia]

Hi, I just saw your videos here on youtube. I'm one of your "new" fans in the world. I'm from Chile, and 'm actually impressed by what you guys represent in the history of fussion music.

Nice to see another chilean comentary. You should consider comming around, seriously.

From the south top of the world, greetings!

[jonydrums]

los esperamos en chile vengan porfavor los consideros los mejores esponentes del mundo grandes maestros los queremos en CHILE CON SIDERENLOS A CA AL FIN DEL MUNDO BENDICIONES POR AVERSE JUNTADO NUEVAMENTE GRANDES COMO SIEMPRE JPDRUMS DE CHILE

[drvitore]

Great stuff...and what a laugh that Lenny reports Romantic Warrior was done in 11 days and Steve Howe's wife joked about YES taking 11 months to get a snare sound...that must have occurred btwn 1974-76 when Moraz was in YES...

[sanchorb]

Wow, if I could see these guys someday, and then see also McLaughlin, Hammer, Laird, Goodman and Cobham together, then I can die peacefully the very next day.

[Renhjarta]

I really wish Bill Connors will go up there and join them for a few tunes, like "Space Circus"!

[ejlarsonstratford]

I'LL BE THERE!!

[charcoal1625]

i think as a musician, this is the greatest event of the year and it's once in lifetime opportunity to see this guys performing, i really hope i can see them live...

[seukfuhi]

Return to Forever Lives FOREVER !!!!!!!

[RTFfan36]

What great guys... can't wait to meet them! If you want the chance to meet them, meet & greet packages are available on their Return2Forever site. I just got one! Can't wait to finally see them face to face!

[SwimmingInReverie]

This is the best news i've heard in a long long time!

[Psychosirius]

Greatttttttt

[annar12002]

WHat a cool set of dudes.

I have my tickets already, can't wait to see them.

[Steelydan4]

Don't forget special guests Flora Purim and Airto...you should just do Light as A Feather with a heavy guitar...Flora's live version of 500 miles high with guitar is best version ever

[michaelofpetaluma]

The real FAB FOUR !!!!

[GPT719]

I've seen the original Meters a few years back,and I will go see them in Chicago in June.

[Nikkorea]

I just wish these guys would consider playing here even just for 1 day!Come here to the Philippines PLEASE!hahaha

[anandaemail]

best group ever

[orderd29]

This is going to be one of the greatest events I can imagine. Roll on the release date for London tickets!

[ethericempyrean]
