Four decades on and Azymuth has reached legendary status amongst fans worldwide and across the music industry thanks to the trio’s pioneering blend of traditional Brazilian jazz and proto funk fusion from the early 70’s right through to the present day.

Light as a Feather is the second studio album by jazz fusion band Return to Forever led by pianist Chick Corea. The style of the music remains mostly the same as the first album, though vocals were given a larger role. Corea produced the album for Polydor Records. Stanley Clarke played double bass, though for most of his career he has played bass guitar. Captain Marvel" is a fast Latin piece that provided the name for Stan Getz's album released in the same year
