Editor's review
Forever really was the outer limit for the seminal fusion act; the guitar blizzards of Al Di Meola, the agile bass runs of Stanley Clarke, and the bewitching keys of Chick Corea collided in unearthly ways. This stunning double-disc is a document of jazz at its most technical and yet most liberated.
Biography
The Anthology is the new career retrospective 2-CD set from legendary jazz fusion band Return To Forever, released on Concord Records. The Anthology features 20 tracks that propelled the band (Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Al Di Meola & Lenny White) into history and made them a titanic influence on an entire generation of players. The 2-CD set includes remixed and remastered tunes from their classic 1970’s albums: Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy (1973), Where Have I Known You Before (1974), the Grammy-winning No Mystery (1975) and their top-selling gold record Romantic Warrior (1976).
