Terrible news. I am very saddened & shocked to just hear about Chick Corea passing at age 79(!!!). Sending prayer to his family & friends. The "friends" album is just ONE example of his compositions & players that changed my musical direction. i was JUST revisiting the Electric Band stuff & getting back to "Got a Match". 🥺🙏❤️🎹🪗 (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLKtzF4lvyH/?igshid=wy56cv4k9u1o
