Welcome to the party! This week we remember Chick Corea, who sadly recently passed away, and talk about some of our favorite albums from his legendary discography. Write-ups of individual albums and sample tracks follow. You can listen to the podcast version via the player below. Just jazz fans sharing records with other jazz fans. It’s social media in the truest sense of the term: no algorithms, no computer-generated playlists. That’s why we’re rebooting that tradition for the digital age with our “Crate Digging” podcast series, in which we’ll search through crates of our memories to bring you a handful of album recommendations on a given theme. Remember record stores? Remember the thrill of turning your friends on to new music by swapping vinyl and CDs? Yeah, we do too. Among them, “Windows,” which became Corea’s first composition to achieve standard status. The original issue featured an all-original set and the 1988 reissue included more tracks from the session. A trio session with Miroslav Vitous and Roy Haines overflowing with creativity, blending hard bop with those Latin tinges that would be ever-present throughout his later discography.

This was the record that firmly established him as a bandleader. By then, Corea had been playing in jazz circles for over half a decade and dazzling anyone he came in contact with. This was Chick Corea’s second album as a leader, following Tones for Joan’s Bones from two years earlier. I could think of no better place to start than with 1968’s Now He Sings, Now He Sobs.
