Ah damn. I found him via Di Melola of course, used to borrow the RTF CDs from the local library when I had no cash. And later when I got into Miles there he was again on Bitches Brew etc.
Towering contributions to 20th century music.
Daaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmnnnnn!!! Man what a loss.
Great musician… Sad to hear it.
This is my favourite album of his, one of those albums I listen to once a month atleast, it’s been decades now!
Oh no! What happened? Edit: Ok cancer. Fugh.
So sorry to hear that. I never really listened to him as such but so many of whom was into as a teen, like Stanley Clarke, John Patitucci, Bela Fleck, Miles Davis, Di Meola, he just seemed to always be somewhere near, either on the same act, previous or later, same orbit, higher or lower. Everyone always had something they had done with Corea.
Yeah, my tastes were much different when I was a teen. The older I get, the more metal I am.
