The third and final edition of Return to Forever gave Chick Corea an excuse to write for a four-piece brass section and to tour with bassist Stanley Clarke, his old friend saxophonist Joe Farrell, drummer Gerry Brown and his future wife, vocalist Gayle Moran. Unfortunately, the compositions are not too memorable on this set and the lyrics are a bit lightweight. Better to acquire this group's live recording if possible. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
This album contains the final line-up of the band, with only founders Chick Corea and Stanley Clarke returning from the previous album. This is the first album since Light as a Feather to contain vocals, featuring Corea's wife Gayle Moran. This album also marks the return of original member Joe Farrell on saxophone, along with several new members making up a five-piece horn section.
With the addition of trombonist Ron Moss, this lineup toured and recorded the live album Live.
