Chick Corea

(actual song begins around ~2:30)

This is one of the busier renditions of On Green Dolphin Street, but it really showcases the talent of all the musicians. And you can hear that they build from simple things. For example, around 3:30, Chick Corea uses just one note and deviates from it slightly and uses rhythmic patterns to make it interesting. I think Chick Corea’s chord voicings have a very distinctive sound – mostly fourths, I believe. And he does use a lot of pentatonic based licks.
