For The Elektric Bands fourth outing, Chick Corea - the venerated 27-time Grammy winner and National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master - decided to push the envelope even further than on previous albums. Writing for the bands individual strengths, Corea went full throttle on Inside Out.
Here we find the Elektric Band engaging in uptempo burners, prog-rock fantasia, Latin-tinged grooves and the kind of complex and characteristic tight harmonies and unisons that characterized Coreas earlier compositions of the 1970s.
There is are highly orchestrated aesthetic pieces like Make a Wish, Part 1, Stretch It, Part 1, the driving, Latinesque swinger of Make a Wish, Part 2, the intricate stop-time vehicle Kicker and the epic 20-minute, four part suite, Tales of Daring. Notably one of Coreas most complex and demanding compositions.
Originally released in the midst of the CD explosion, Corea took full advantage of the increased running time the format offered. With vinyl in decline, songs were cut from the track lists in order to fit on the original single LP vinyl release. At last this album has been restored to its original running order, as the artist intended.
Produced by Corea, with longtime engineering partner Bernie Kirsh, the album features detailed liner notes by jazz writer Bill Milkowski, providing context and filling out the listening experience with lush technical notes.
