Chick Corea Band's Great JB Performance + Tour Schedule!

❁Good morning❁ 

A couple of people asked about Chick Corea's tour schedule after they heard about the July 10th, 2010 show at the Ghent Jazz Festival (in Belgium):

Twenty-five (25) free-flowing minutes of James Brown's music by the Chick Corea Freedom Band (Corea, Kenny Garrett, Christian McBride and Roy Haynes)!

Corea played drums for a bit, McBride sang "Sex Machine"; it was wild! Vijay Iyer was also there! Roy Haynes's grandson Marcus Gilmore was there. Hiromi! Pianist Ruslan Sirota and drummer Ronald Bruner, Jr. from the Stanley Clarke Band, too! Stanley Clarke! Very cool!

Someone in the audience videotaped it and the performance is presented here in three (3) parts.  Enjoy!
