Return to Forever is a lyrical album that has beautiful melodies and strong improvisation from Joe Farrell while tastefully melding the Brazilian influences of Flora Purim and Airto Moreira.
Still "Return to Forever" highlights the best of what Chick Corea has to offer, a willingness to please, tasteful use of texture through the electric piano and music that takes risk while still being melodic and affirming.
Whereas the former was an ultimate statement of stylistic exploration and the latter was the height of breathtaking ferocious musicianship, the first album by Chick Corea's Return to Forever is a masterptece of melody and free -spirited sensitivity.

 Mahavishnu Orchestra vs. Return to Forever   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Return to Forever (the band with diMeola anyway) was chopsy in a sometimes comical way, but Mahavishnu did it in a blow-your-head-off way.
Return to Forever made some pretty wild music, impressive if nothing as monsterchopsuey, but they never made any albums as good as the first two Mahavishnu records.
RTF also started as something really different, as the first band with Joe Farrell, Airto Moreira and Flora Putrim is closer to a latin based jazz group than electric fusion.

 Chick Corea : Return to Forever - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
The legendary first lineup of Chick Corea's fusion band Return to Forever debuted on this classic album (titled after the group but credited to Corea), featuring Joe Farrell on soprano sax and flute, the Brazilian team of vocalist Flora Purim and drummer/percussionist Airto Moreira, and electric bass whiz Stanley Clarke.
Nonetheless, Return to Forever is every bit as classic, using a similar blend of spacy electric-piano fusion and Brazilian and Latin rhythms.
Certainly, this edition of Return to Forever wasn't inclined toward high-voltage jazz-rock (as the next one was), but this group's two albums still stand as some of the most imaginative and distinctive early fusion recordings.

After leaving Return to Forever, Clarke focused on his R&B and funk roots on numerous solo projects and collaborations with George Duke and Jeff Beck, among others, before joining with his Return to Forever band mate, Al DiMeola, and with Jean-Luc Ponty, to record The Rite of Strings.
I also like the 2-CD "Return to Forever Live!" set, which was originally released as a four-LP set and is now apparently difficult to find (a look on Amazon shows used copies available for around $50!).

In late 1971, Chick Corea, already a pioneer in the emerging world of fusion-jazz, assembled a what-became-an-all-star band, Return To Forever.  With bassist Stanley Clarke staying by Corea's side, RTF's personnel changes would soon lead to the inclusion of master fusion drummer, Lenny White, and a young, fiery, guitar virtuoso, Al DiMeola.

She picked it up, glancing at the title: "A Return To Forever." Tucking the book inside her bag, she decided she would call tomorrow to let him know she'd found his book and would return it by messenger if he needed it before Saturday.
Returning to the pages of the book, she read that the technique, one which she was sure she had seen in a movie years ago, was concerned more with a mind over matter process than with the possibility of physical return.
It was a process which required one to be immersed in that moment of the past in every manner possible, from clothing, and furniture, down to the most minor detail; use of only the money of the time, and dispensing with anything which might be considered present day.

 Return to Forever (1972)
This is the first Return To Forever album, and in my opinion the best.
This record forever changed the way I played keyboard instruments, and when I got my first Rhodes, it was almost as if listening to and emulating Chick Corea's playing had made my style fit the instrument.
(Kenny G. should forever wither in shame after all he's done to an instrument that is capable of making such beautiful music as Farrell clearly demonstrates here.) I found this album to be a lovely bridge from Corea's work with Miles Davis.
