Chick Corea - Piano Solo on "Steps"
This is from the landmark recording by Chick called Now He Sings, Now He Sobs. It was recorded in 1968 and was Chick's first outing as a leader. It features Miroslav Vitous on bass and the amazing Roy Haynes on drums. I heard a story that Chick loved Roy's cymbal sound so much that he made Roy give it to him and Chick made all subsequent drummers use Roy's cymbal on his gig. It's a great story even if it isn't true. This is Chick doing his thing on a Cminor Blues with an altered turnaround.
