Chick Corea - Children's Songs (1984)

Children's Songs (1983)
This solo collection of mostly short songs with simple themes is another love-it-or-hate-it affair, with critics saying there is little development in the pieces. Fans say it captures a wide and pleasing variety of melodies and moods.

Everytime I hear this disc I am reminded how amazing the human species is. Just when it seems we have defeated the mountain someone goes higher. Chick is one of the finest composers of our time ! I believe in say, One hundred years they will look back on the music from our era and Chick Corea will be held as one of the greats. From his awe inspiring "Return to Forever" project to "Concerto" Chick has hit all of the intellectual high ground while all the time maintaining plenty of emotion and feeling, Not to mention Technique! CHILDRENS SONGS is a beautiful collection of short musical stories…the title would imply a simple structure but nothing could be farther from the truth. These compositions bristle with fresh and almost child like energy and emotion (hence the title I would imagine)and as always leave the listner touched and wanting more…
