Once, I had the good fortune to look Chick Corea in the eyes. You could see many things there, but most of all you could see this: not a trace of snobbery. He was truly an immense musician and person. In every sense.

Armando Anthony "Chick" Corea (June 12, 1941 – February 9, 2021)

Photo taken by my wife, with Chick Corea’s consent — he even helped us get the shot. It was dark and the first tries weren’t working — the thumbs-up was Chick’s idea; I happily mirrored him.
