Various Artists Chick Corea, John McLaughlin, Larry Coryell, Stanley Clarke, Dave Liebman/Tokyo, Japan 1980

This is a treasured sound source disc for enthusiasts, recorded from the unearthed broadcast sound source of the super band’s live performance at the Jazz Festival held at the Denen Coliseum in July 1980. It was Chick Corea’s annual appearance on Live Under The Sky, which is known for gathering great players, including Larry Coryell, John McLaughlin, and Anthony Jackson, to name a few. , Stanley Clarke, Dave Liebman, and other super-luxurious members. “Friendship” is a good Latin fusion song reminiscent of early RTF. Tony Williams’ refreshing samba rhythm is wonderful. Larry Coryell’s electric guitar solo, which seems out of place, has a great presence!
