Austin dates raise curtain on Forever's return (Reuters)
Legendary jazz/rock fusion group Return to Forever will begin its summer reunion tour May 29 with a two-night stand at Austin's Paramount Theatre, Billboard has learned.
The act, which hasn't performed together in 25 years, will play North America throughout June before heading to Europe for a month's worth of shows in July. The classic lineup of keyboardist Chick Corea, bassist Stanley Clarke, guitarist Al Di Meola and drummer Lenny White returns stateside in August for an East Coast run that concludes August 7 at New York's United Palace.
After a handful of rehearsals in early February, Corea told Billboard, "It was thrilling getting together with the guys again," noting that "everybody's approach and sound was so much richer." The musicians haven't ruled out the prospect of recording new material as a group. "We all definitely want to," Corea said, noting that fans should expect a live DVD of the tour.
