The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide
The Leprechaun is an album by Chick Corea recorded and released in 1976.
The album was recorded during Corea's time with his jazz fusion group Return to Forever. Though the album is more jazz oriented than anything Return to Forever had produced up to that time, the fusion edge still rings through quite clearly. Chick Corea was awarded the 1976 Grammy Award for the Best Instrumental Jazz Performance, Individual or Group Grammy Award for the album and the Grammy Award for the Best Instrumental Arrangement Grammy Award for "Leprechaun's Dream, Pt. 1".
