2025.05.26 Uri Caine on Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock - 3 of 3

In the seventies, when Uri Caine was discovering the piano, two dominant influences were Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock. Both were in their thirties, both had played emerging electric music with Miles Davis after having established their Jazz bona fides, both led successful fusion bands (Chick with Return To Forever, Herbie with his Head Hunters band), and each had a distinctive voice on the keyboard. How stunning must it have been in 1978 when they announced a joint recording and touring project? Just two geniuses on stage at two concert grand pianos. If that's not catnip for an eager young pianist, we don't know what is! You better believe that, when they came to Philadelphia, Uri Caine was in the house. I mean, the guy is still talking about it! What did he hear? What was the big deal? Find out Monday (5/26) when Mitch Goldman hosts Uri Caine on Deep Focus and unearths live, unreleased recordings.
