Hi Everyone

In honor of Chick's recent passing. Please tell me anything that you may be feeling about this. Or tell me any of your favorite music by him. Or any of your personal stories about his music or a concert you went to. Anything that you may want to say in tribute to his music or accomplishments in Fusion. He was one of my all-time favorite keyboardists and I'm missing him already. There's really no one that could step up and replace him.

One of the most amazing keyboard players of the 20th Century. His genius can be heard all over his legacy, which is vast, extensive and inspirng. No words can describe who he really was, and he will live forever through his music.

What a loss. I remember when I first heard Return to Forever, I hope any proghead would remember such an experience. Jazz owes a lot to the man. Herbie Hancock had replaced him in a band I can't remember the name in 1962, and I always found funny that he then replaced Hancock in Miles Davis quintet in 1968.

To whom it might be of interest, I just learned that Cameron Graves is releasing a new album. He is sadly missing among the pages of this website, but I think his 2017 Planetary Prince will please any grieving Chick fan. Don't know what his latest sound like though.
