He has not ''gone forever'', but just ''returned to forever''. We continue living our lives with his masterpieces, so his true death will never come until the day of extinction of usーeveryone who knows and loves him. This is NOT the long good-bye to Chick Corea. R.I.P. the Legend.
RIP Chick Corea. Another great has left us. “It is my hope that those who have an inkling to play, write, perform or otherwise, do so. If not for yourself then for the rest of us. It’s not only that the world needs more artists, it’s also just a lot of fun.” Chick Corea 2021.
Anybody notice that Gambale starts taking a solo at 5:30 when he's not supposed to? He starts soloing, and then Chick Corea plays the melody over him, and Gambale and Patitucci look up at 5:36. At 5:50, Gambale and Patitucci are laughing about it, and Marienthal gives Gambale the ol' eyebrow raise at 5:57. I never noticed it the first time around. Funny stuff! Even the masters can make mistakes!
We played Spain in my high school Jazz bad, that would have been... oh... 2001. I thought the director was insane picking it for us. We were probably terrible but we did it. Still love the tune and all of what I hear from Chick. I can't thank the director enough for pushing us into doing things like this.
@@igoragrich5445 Yes!!? And that’s probably an understatement!! I’m a musician I sing, play drums, guitar, bass, piano, ALL synths! And from one musician to another: Weckl is easily in the top ten-20 “GOAT” conversations!
RIP Chick. I'll be listening this masterpiece during this sad night in Madrid, Spain. I'm so lucky I got to see him perform live in my hometown, Barranquilla, Colombia.
The harmonic maturity of Marienthals solo is out of this world. He knows exactly where he is, where he’s going and how he’s going to get there. His tone passion and dynamics are all also on point. BOY can he play the sax
ALWAYS one of my favorite Chick Corea songs... The fact that it was played by the Elektrik Band even makes it more special!!! RIP Chick, thank you SO much for your music!!!
Sax player kills it! Bass player shines! Drummer syncopation and chops - wow! I have always respected how Chick allowed his individual band players to grow and expand their talents - letting them take the center stage from time to time. Its the characteristic of a mature player and TEAM player. Additionally, it takes so much pressure off of Chick to have to lead every night. While Chick is gone, his contributions to music lives on!
I come here to pay my respects to a national treasure that we have lost. Can't stop crying. Rest in peace dear genius. I'll never get over your brilliance or your loss.
I'm crying. I had the chance to listen to him in Marseille a few years ago, and he made the public participate during Spain just like he did here. The unity he brought in the heart of the people for one night was an experience that makes me want to say Chick was an unbelievably humble and generous genius, he will be dearly missed but his legacy will live on through each and every one of us.
youll tend to find if enough people are singing at the same time it almost always comes out in tune, i dont know exactly why but it even happens in pop concerts of which i doubt most of the audience are musicians, but they still always come out perfectly in tune
I remember coming back home from work (I’m a wedding band musician in Monterrey, Mx.) and play his tunes as soon as I got in my car, or along with my friends and pretending we played just like him. He made our lives more comfortable and full of motivation. Rest In Peace, Chick Corea. 🙏🏼❤️
This is the best instrumental version of Spain out there imo. I come back and back to this ever since it was uploaded back when I was in high school. I wanted to see him play live so badly, I can't believe he's gone... RIP
While I agree this is a great rendition for me the best will always be the acoustic version on Light as a Feather. I don't know how old you are my friend but if you are not familiar with it you owe it to yourself to check it out. If you are then to each his own. ✌
This legitimately made me cry. True music; true emotion, true miracle. It still wonders me like a kid the power of music. It's able to trascend time and strike directly into your heart, like an invisible arrow, just into your memories and your daydreams.
Mi hija de 11 años ya sabia quien era este gran maestro, hoy le daré la trista noticia pero tambien me alegra saber que el legado traspasa generaciones, será eterno.
Sus temas, particular forma de sentir la música.. CHICK COREA.. SPAIN.. OLÉ 💃🌹❤️ Su alma, quedará en el recuerdo, su interpretación es única, amaba ESPAÑA
First time I see this, only one word, WOW-WOW-WOW!!! What an educated audience, and obviously big fans of Chick Corea, and how gracious of him to lead the audience into singing with him playing. And the cast= NO WORDS NECESSARY, OUTSTANDING AND BRILLIANT PLAYERS, ALL OF THEM EQUALLY. Rest In Peace Chick Corea, we will all miss you, and thank you for sharing your music with this world, you made it a much brighter and better place. Your legacy lives on until the end of time. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🎼🎶🎵🎹❤️🎵🎶🎼
I have played this so many times watching and listening to Patitucci whom I think is the finest of bass players to ever put it smack dab in the pocket. Cant get enough of this bassman..incredible.
Siento la pérdida del Maestro, agradezco toda las maravillas que nos deja, con ellas ha hecho nuestra vida más bella, en nuestros corazones Chick Corea. R.I.P.
Chick Corea introduced me to Jazz Fusion back in 1973 along with Herbie Hancock and I have never looked back. He will definitely be missed and his music will live on forever in my spirit. Rest well my musical friend.
His music is priceless no doubt but what a respect from his troop for the audience and from the audience to each member of his team. The wonderful part is, the audience is singing a very hard part of the melody so easily ❤
When I saw Chick the last time in 2018 I believe he did something similar in having the audience sing phrases back to him. It was that open, generous, humble spirit that made him not only one of the greatest musicians of all time, but a legend. RIP
R.i.p legend. I don't really remember how old was me when my father put Spain to listen to, but it was when i was very young, probably 6 years old, and at that time i was very cauticativated by your music, incredible... Now i'm 25 years old and i can't stop crying listening to your music... I hope you're in a better place right now. Thanks for all you give us, mister...
Highschool band read this chart in 2009, and we just couldn't get it tight enough to perform. Ever since then, Eric Marienthal's solo has lived in my head. Chick Corea, Eric Marienthal, Frank Gambale, John Pattitucci, and Dave Weckl. What a legendary line up for a band.
Hoo man shivers of pure joy from that audience callback. Nailed every tasty note he slung at them... had to be a houseful of musicians lol. Really wanted him to keep upping the stakes with increasingly bonkers Chick runs till they tripped, but oh well 😄 You enriched my life and musicianship like you'll never know and left an indelible impression, maestro. You are with us always. Rest now 🙏
I discovered Chick back in high school in the 70's...I was convert ever since. He introduced me to fusion.... my musical tastes are as vast as chick playing, RIP master
I can't believe that this masterpiece was composed in 1972 (45 years ago, almost half of a century!!) because it still sounds new and fresh to me in 2017...
FYI: "Spain" was composed by Joaquin Rodrigo in 1939 with a long history of instrumental adaptations until keyboard genius Chick Corea wrote the jazz fusion lyrics in 1971 and released the album "Light As A Feather" with Corea (Rhodes electric piano), Flora Purim (vocals and percussion), Stanley Clarke (bass), Airto Moreira (drums), and Joe Farrell (flute), and made it a jazz standard by 1973. "Spain" was recorded in several versions, by Corea himself as well as by other artists, including a flamenco version by Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin in the 1980s, and a progressive bluegrass version by Bela Fleck in 1979. Corea also performed it as a duo with Japanese pianist Hiromi Uehara. Corea thereafter corroborated with Artie Marten and Al Jarreau to rewrite the song, and Jarreau made this popular during his world tour in an album titled "I Can Recall" in 1980. The phenomenal ensemble Manhattan Transfer also did their own version that captured the attention of those who were not really into jazz. The Light as a Feather version of Spain received two Grammy nominations, for Best Instrumental Arrangement and for Best Instrumental Jazz Performance by a Group. In 2001, Corea was awarded the Best Instrumental Arrangement Grammy for "Spain for Sextet and Orchestra".
@@julesdevera8359 With all due respect, Concierto de Aranjuez for classical guitar was composed by Rodrigo in 1939. Jazz artists such as Miles Davis and Chick Corea have adapted parts of that Concierto in different works in reflections of Spain. But Rodrigo didn't compose such a piece AFAIK, it is the Concierto he created. It is an awesome piece BTW and all 3 movements are a joy and an homage to Spain in their own right.
He is the 1st drummer ever to totally steal my attention. I have new respect for this instrument now. He just has a million ways to carry it. So impressive
Thank you for all those wonderful,amazing years, and thank you for teaching all those amazing,wonderful people. I hear your influence in each and every one of them. Thanks man,thanks.R.I.P
Chick Corea has passed away - and the whole era of jazz passed away with him. An absolutely brilliant musician and a warm, attentive person. Teacher. The man who was a real leader followed by other jazz musicians. I am proud I had the opportunity to shake your hand and tell you about it. Rest in peace.
These are warm sensitive words near & dear & close to my heart very thoughtful of you to write such kind & such inspiring words that can literally melt one's heart wow very touching almost made me teary eyed didn't even know Chick Corea had never known or heard of him till just five minutes ago I was wondering who had won the 2021 grammy award in jazz even though I watched the Grammy's I vaguely remember all the winners. Well anyway I am sorry to hear he has passed on he must of been a remarkable musician & amazing human being internationally known RIP
Eric Marienthal great sax player. Saw him yeras ago ( feb 1995 ) in a small club ,Barn Thai, in Kuala Lumpur. He was good then , even better now........and what company ! ......no longer, but you gave us years of joy Chick
