Review
by Jim Todd
Tones for Joan's Bones, Chick Corea's first session as a leader, is a blazing, advanced hard bop set from late 1966, with writing that reveals an affinity with McCoy Tyner's seminal hard bop structures from this period. Tenor player Joe Farrell and trumpeter Woody Shaw are ideal for this music. They deliver virtuoso performances that are both visceral and cerebral. Steve Swallow, while later focusing exclusively on electric bass, often with a melodic, impressionistic approach, is pure thunder here. In a blindfold test his acoustic bass could be mistaken for Buster Williams'. Drummer Joe Chambers is all relentless, propulsive energy, but subtle too. Corea is a torrent of harmonic and melodic imagination, couched in unerring rhythm. Anybody with an interest in this vital and exciting period will find this session indispensable.

Reseña
por Jim Todd
Tones for Joan's Bones, la primera sesión de Chick Corea como líder, es un ardiente y avanzado set de hard bop de finales de 1966, con de finales de 1966, con una escritura que revela una afinidad con las estructuras seminales de hard bop de McCoy Tyner de este período. El tenorista Joe Farrell y el trompetista Woody Shaw son ideales para esta música. Ofrecen interpretaciones virtuosas que son a la vez viscerales y cerebrales. Steve Swallow, aunque más tarde se centró exclusivamente en el bajo eléctrico, a menudo con un melódico e impresionista, aquí es puro trueno. En una prueba su bajo acústico podría confundirse con el de Buster Williams. El batería Joe Chambers es todo energía implacable y propulsiva, pero también sutil. Corea es un torrente de imaginación armónica y melódica, envuelto en un ritmo infalible. Cualquiera que se interese por este periodo vital y apasionante encontrará indispensable.
