Miles Davis' electric bands in the late 1960s served as the incubator for several pioneering jazz fusion bands, including Chick Corea's legendary Return to Forever (1972-77). Return to Forever commanded the fusion universe, expanding the language from funk-fueled electric rock-jazz, to the acoustic quietudes of Corea's more classically-inspired pieces. After their successful reunion tour last year, the harmonic convergence that Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke and Lenny White felt has led to the formation of the jazz supergroup -- Corea, Clarke & White.

They will perform at 8 p.m. on September 25 in the Center for the Arts on the University at Buffalo's North (Amherst) Campus.
