New Release by Corea & McLaughlin Available Soon!!

On April 28, Concord Records will release Chick Corea & John McLaughlin’s Five Peace Band Live. This double-album was recorded during their European tour during the fall of 2008. As young jazz artists, both Corea and McLaughlin did stints with Miles Davis before forming their own revolutionary bands: Corea’s Return to Forever and McLaughlin’s Mahavishnu Orchestra. The music played by these two groups attracted multitudes of rock fans in the 1970s and helped to shape a new genre of jazz. Five Peace Band marks the duo’s first collaboration with a band, presenting eclectic nights of inspired music that includes nods to Miles (and to the late Joe Zawinul, with “In a Silent Way”), intricate acoustic jazz, exhilarating jazz/rock/funk, and intimate duets. Also in the mix are Corea and McLaughlin classics, and a special feature by Herbie Hancock.
