Corea - Metheny - DeJohnette

New on eMusic is The Song is You, a two disc set with seven long standards. Impressions, No Greater Love, All Blues, Waltz, Isfahan, Stella by Starlight, Round Midnight. Label listed as Douglas Music/United for Opportunity. AMG seems to know nothing. Curiosity compels me to download.

Is Corea doing some sort of Return to Forever reunion tour this year?

Oh God

So I hear, but with neither Braxton nor Konitz, alas.

That explains the absence of guitar on the first two tracks. I listened while showering and was wondering what TENOR was on Impressions, never would have guessed Brax but I like to believe I would have at least figured out it was alto.

The mini review of the Impressions sax solo that I was putting together in my mind went like this: Doesn't really inhabit the dark corners of Trane's soul, but digs the shit out of what he could do with a horn. The rest of the band sounds great, too.

On the basis of the first two tracks, highly recommended.

I would be interested to hear this. Can't explain why.

The discs came out in 1997. Haven't played them in a few years. Maybe this week.

Pretty much "jammy", all of it is, for better and worse.
