Last week we learned of the passing on of jazz master and beloved musician Chick Corea. He had a profound impact on my life, and his music was a gateway to my love of jazz music. This podcast pays homage to Armando (Chick) Corea. I don't think there is another musician who expressed so much love for music as an art form.
