Paint The World captures the Elektric Band II at a moment when Corea had already reshaped jazz fusion once and was deliberately rebuilding from scratch, surrounding himself with younger players hungry enough to follow him anywhere the music went.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDouble vinyl LP pressing. In 1993 Chick Corea - the venerated 27-time Grammy winner and National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master - unveiled the second incarnation of the Elektric Band. With the brand new lineup of guitarist Mike Miller, bassist Jimmy Earl and drummer Gary Novak, and saxophonist Eric Marienthtal (the lone holder over from the first iteration of the Elektric Band,) Corea, approached this ambitious outing in the same way he had done everything throughout his career, by pushing the boundaries of what modern jazz is. With material written with these specific players in mind, Corea gathered this group of remarkably flexible musicians into Mad Hatter Studios in Los Angeles. Recorded almost entirely live in first takes, the album is notable for it's \"less is more\" approach to Corea's particular style of genre bending composition. Though the focus may have been more on acoustic piano than synths, the same proficiency, spontaneity, impeccable execution and jaw-dropping display of chops that characterize the five first Elektric Band albums applies. Of special note here is the inclusion of the track \"Final Frontier\", originally released exclusively on the Japanese and European editions. This all out burner is the lone tune on the record featuring Corea on a synthesizer. Written as an answer to \"Got A Match\" from 1986's The Chick Corea Elektric Band album, it's an uptempo showcase for the players to stretch out and the kind of track that exemplifies the jazz fusion that Corea and his groups came to define. This 2 disc vinyl LP reissue comes with new detailed liner notes by jazz writer Bill Milkowski, providing context and filling out the listening experience with lush technical notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Paint The World (3:58)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Blue Miles (5:33)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Tone Poem (6:52)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. CTA (5:49)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Silhouette (1:43)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Space (6:08)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. The Ant \u0026amp; The Elephant (7:34)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide C\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Tumba Island (5:59)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Ritual (7:37)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Ished (7:18)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide D\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Spanish Sketch (8:08)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Final Frontier (5:02)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Reprise (2:51)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 708857330713\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Candid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.28.24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e LP Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- discogs-import --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"discogs-import\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e GRP (GRD-9731)  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eReleased:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1993  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e US\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Paint The World – 3:56\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Blue Miles – 5:30\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Tone Poem – 6:47\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 CTA – 5:47\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 Silhouette – 1:43\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 Space – 6:03\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7 The Ant \u0026amp; The Elephant – 7:31\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 Tumba Island – 5:57\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9 Ritual – 7:34\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 Ished – 7:14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11 Spanish Sketch – 8:06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 Reprise – 2:50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCredits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJimmy Earl – Bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGary Novak – Drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMike Miller (7) – Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChick Corea – Piano, Keyboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEric Marienthal – Saxophone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"relix.shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54547735314750,"sku":"229725","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4609\/5166\/files\/12633295716670-transparent-v2.png?v=1791433207","url":"https:\/\/reserveselects.myshopify.com\/products\/chick-corea-elektric-band-ii-paint-the-world-2-lp-vinyl","provider":"Reserve Selects","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
