Chick Corea alive and well

[Antonmb]

Saw Chick Corea tonight at the Jazz Alley in Seattle, and he was outstanding. Playing with him were Carlitos del Puerto (Bass) and Ignacio Berroa (Drums). At the age of 76, Chick is still going strong, and remains a remarkable pianist, improviser and leader. Best of all, he and his band mates were wonderfully in tune with each other and clearly enjoying themselves. The music was brilliant, the acoustics excellent, and the band had fun engaging with the audience.

For you Seattle area AAers, if you haven’t been to the Jazz Alley, treat yourself some night to a great time at what is probably one of the premiere jazz clubs in the country.
