Description
Chick Corea first laid eyes on New York’s Greenwich Village in 1959, fresh from high school, with a head full of music that only he could have imagined. With this new release The Musician, recorded in the epicenter of Chick’s original NYC haunts and more than 50 years later, Corea finally brings all that music together at once.

The new live 3-CD and Blu-ray set captures Corea’s 70th birthday celebration at the famed Blue Note Jazz Club in 2011, where he assembled a staggering lineup of musical friends and fellow-travelers – among them Herbie Hancock, Bobby McFerrin, Wynton Marsalis, John McLaughlin and Stanley Clarke – for a month-long residency featuring 10 different bands, including triumphal sets by his own Chick Corea Elektric Band and Return to Forever. All of it is captured brilliantly in the first feature-length documentary on Corea’s life, music and genius musical partners. The film takes you inside the heads and “hangs” of some of the greatest artists of our time – backstage and personal – and the CDs capture almost four hours of live recordings of every band.

I ordered the version with the blu-ray. Getting to see any of these shows live would have been a dream come true. This will have to suffice. I was wishing for full sets from each configuration. Maybe that will be eked out over the next couple of years.

I recall that the individual shows from Chick's 60th birthday "Rendezvous in NY" were released on dvd only. There was a three cd compilation however. Hope the audio gets released this time. Youtube has some nice clips from this series of shows; handheld quality tho.
