Having followed these guys for the last 3 decades (at least Chick), this band is at the top of the list. Listen to this COMPOSITION -- ahh, they're not "improvising" here. Consider the many parts where they ALL play in unison. Most fusion bands would have a hard time playing any part of this. It's unparalleled. Nobody touches Chick!
Wherever his Muse leads him is fine by me, but I will say that this is the one tune that I wish personally that Chick had revisited when they reunited circa '04. On the other hand, he gave us a whole freakin' new album--To the Stars--when they did reunite, so if I had to to choose, I'd take the new album rather than hear this wonderful masterpiece pass through his musical mind one more time. LIFE IS GOOD. LONG LIVE CHICK COREA!! My favorite thing in the whole world. Thanks for posting, Moraito.

@ydabom >>I had to thumbs down this...because it leaves out the whole opening<<
Yep, can't hear it as the beautiful cyclical form that it is. Hey, at least he posted it; time constraints what they are...
