The founding members of Return to Forever, keyboardist Chick Corea and bassist Stanley Clarke, recently hung out at Chick’s masterclass, video production studio - Mad Hatter Studios East. The occasion was to deliver a free online music workshop to musicians all over the world. In this session, the inside story behind the classic album Light as a Feather is told.
Light as a Feather was the band’s second release with Flora Purim on vocals, Joe Farrell on sax/flute and Airto Moreira on drums. The album has become a total classic and includes Chick’s most popular composition, "Spain."
The storyline in this video reveals how Stanley’s first-ever composition ends up being the title track of this timeless Return to Forever record. And a huge bonus is seeing these long-time friends and musical partners deliver a beautiful duet version of Stanley’s tune.

No one has a more impressive body of work than Chick Corea. RIP.
Smoking a cigar, listening to this music, drinking a good cognac. I think I don’t need anything more.
Thanks for the music Chick. Rest In Peace.
Chic Corea is always one step ahead of what everybody thought to have been the best he has ever done.
My life has been enriched by this performance. Namaste...
RIP Chick I can see nothing but Musical Notes Across the Heavens,
Come on Chick, play some gigs with Flora and Airto before it's too late. Much love. Thank you for all you've gifted humanity!
It's too late.
@@BradWatsonMiami what a prick
@@JCR1992 bruh why? He just said a fact, even tho its sad and we all wish it wasn’t the reality...
I was fortunate enough to have been at this 'hang' at Chick's studio...Sitting about 10 feet in front of Stanley's bass....SUCH a fun and inspirational night !...RIP Chick...
God bless you Sir. From the time I was 15, you and Stanley....God bless you both.
Love this song even more now!
So nice! Miss ya Chick. Looking forward to your next reincarnation and you picking up where you left off.
It's great to see an overhead view of Chick play. Nothing like his G phrygian pedal. A timeless tune and performance.
As a musician I can only say it is fantastic that you guys are doing this.
So glad you liked it.
You were my ticket into jazz. First, it was Return to Forever, now I am trying to learn my favorite album of yours, The Mad Hatter. Playing along somehow has helped my tempo. You and Steve Gadd have noticeable chemistry, as do you and Stanley.
Hey Chick, I have always admired your music. Glad to hear you and Staley play this tune again. I grew up with your music and always hoped to jam with you. I would also like to see you and Stanley do a show with Flora and Airto playing some of the early RTF stuff. I have fun learning the bass lines to your music all these years. Thanks for all of the great music you bring us.
Dear Chick, I want to thank you for so, so many years of musical enjoyment!!.....A huge influence to me,as a drummer....Many years back I sent you a mix of my drumming that I performed/mixed recorded to your live rendition of"Spain" back when you and Bobby Mcferrin were doing a duo "Play". I received a kind letter from you, and a phone call from Bobby M. !!..A wonderful treat! I would really enjoy you checking out my youtube drum page/channel, if you get a moment. Thank you again for the fantastic, and awesome music you have performed/recorded for all of us! Todd Walker
When I was 19, Chick Corea introduced me to the world of jazz music, and I've been listening to him every day ever since. Saw him three times live. His music changed my life by making the world a far better place. My favorite piano player and American composer in one single person. Why wouldn't I be a diehard fan ?
Nice. Was listening to Light as a Feather this morning. Love this song and entire album!
Great rendition and great video!
my heart aches...
Truly a Magical Gem 🙏
Making a whole series with you and Stanley is exquisite!
Thank you for so wonderful job, for let us enjoy some many years with your creativity and keep doing it today. God bless you.
Thank you for your kind words :)
I know for been the best, keep your steps

No Mystery was one of my all time favorite albums.....it's an honor to tell you it is still magical when I hear your tunes.....Light as a feather was another awesome album as well.
Awesome stuff. Just beautiful feel, energy, mood.
Brother Chick C. You have influenced me as a Bass player from Detroit Michigan. Thank you for the journey sharing your creative musicianship. stay in good health my brother. continued blessings to you and yours.
Chick Corea... The greatest!!!!
My all respect for a Masters of Music, God bless.

It's amazing the wealth of musicians wich nowadays can be found on TH-cam and take the time to teach each and everyone the best they have..... It's truly a blessing. Thank you Mr Corea and Mr Clarke
In a word....smooth! 😎 *APPLAUDS*
First album i bought... Light as a feather! bring back memories...
I was wondering who doing the percussion, it’s Stanley’s pant leg on the bass, sounds great!
and romantic warrior poster on the wall .. brilliant
Best ever RTF tune! And a PLEASURE (and nightmare!) to transcribe!
The Greatest❤
As nice and authentic as his music. Ty CC.
Extraordinario
Badass!
Wonderful to see - the tour with Béla Fleck was mindblowing stuff too! Caught it in Boston! I know the lick at 2:57 starts a song - but can't for the life of me remember how the rest goes.
Lick at 2.57 starts Miles/Coltrane autumn leaves
wow!
I have always loved this tune and I am trying to get it together for my guitar trio. I have a chart for it from the Real Book and was just wondering about a few of the chords and how one should approach them. on my chart the chord after the Bm7 is a E7#9b13 which makes sense, but then the next bar is written as E7#9.13 then to a G7#9.13 - so are we talking a diminished kind of sound over these two bars, or is it an error in the chart and should all the 13s be flat? Also, the F7's - are they to be treated as F7b9 kind of thing? any insight would be greatly appreciated. thanks
thank You ! Lord bless You )
trés sympa cette version accoustique... j'ai le vinyl de votre magnifique album (two parts)..... et ROMANTIC WARRIOR....many kiss de NICE .
Thank you for watching :)
Fantastic. I recommend for musicians to subscribe to Chick's website to experience the sessions live...What a gift! Could you please post '500 Miles High'? You finished the latest live broadcast with this song and it was magical to hear Gayle, Chick and Stanley enjoying the moment and having fun with this superb melody. Thanks.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'll see what I can do.

Dumb question: why do jazz folks like oriental carpets on their stage? Is it an acoustic or aesthetic choice? Just something I've noticed. Great video! I'm a huge fan! Thanks for sharing!
A little bit of both! Glad you liked the video :)
Thank you! All the best!
Wonderful. People like Chick should be banned from returning to foreverland, but I'm glad he left us such a wealth of great recordings.
is it actually chick corea a commenting on these videos?
