Chick Corea - Light As A Feather
This album lays on heavy synthesizer grooves, which leads to a real 80's funk feel. At times, I couldn't handle all of the 80's synthesized beats. Some of the effects used were really cool to listen to on headphones since the grooves would pan from the left to right channel periodically, however, this was sometimes overused and made me get a headache. The transition from song to song is very seamless and the album has a general light airy as a feather theme to it. The addition of the singer on most tracks gives contrast to Corea's keyboard. I listened to Light As A Feather way more than three times, and it's becoming one of my favorite CD's and one that I highly recommend.

Tom there are no synthesizers or drum machines on this 1973 classic recording. The instrumentation is Fender Rhodes electric piano, drumset, bass, sax, flute, and female vocals.
