The Story
Chick Coreaâs first unaccompanied album initiated the solo piano idiom at ECM, and proved to be extremely influential. Alongside music created in the moment, some powerful melodies are explored here, not least that of âSometime Agoâ, soon to be a theme song for the Return To Forever band. âI found it quite easy to select what I felt was the single best disc [of 1971]. Chick Coreaâs Piano Improvisations Volume One is a true masterpiece of music and a very important albumâ â Michael Cuscuna, Record World.
