Return to Forever IV with Zappa Plays Zappa August 22, 2011

What does it take to create an epic, unprecedented musical event?

Return to Forever IV, the latest installment of the definitive jazz/rock/fusion ensemble, has the answer. Bring together a union of jazz/rock’s founding fathers: from RTF, core members Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke and Lenny White; from Mahavishnu Orchestra, virtuoso electric violinist Jean-Luc Ponty. Then add fiery-fingered guitarist Frank Gambale. Toss in a torrent of RTF’s classic songbook, highlights from each member’s solo career, new heavyweight material and turn them loose. This is an experience you’ll want to keep in your memory books–forever
