Bill Connors' great moment of fame occurred when he was with <a href="spotify:artist:5olDKSsFhhmwh8UCWwKtpq">Chick Corea</a>'s <a href="spotify:artist:1txWOvvuItlRlkB4rM0cUK">Return to Forever</a> during 1973-1974, recording the influential Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy. His decision to leave <a href="spotify:artist:1txWOvvuItlRlkB4rM0cUK">RTF</a> to concentrate more on acoustic guitar may have been satisfying artistically, but it cut short any chance he had at commercial success. Previously, he had played electric guitar with <a href="spotify:artist:0BGJPkAPaWo8416uGeHrJL">Mike Nock</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:6mrjnfLYDl91oh10EIeKPV">Steve Swallow</a> in San Francisco; but his post-1974 work was primarily acoustic, particularly in the 1970s when he recorded a series of atmospheric albums for ECM (including with <a href="spotify:artist:7MEyCD4G0Zl6kmikEAZsym">Jan Garbarek</a>). In the mid-'80s, for Pathfinder, Connors' music became more rock-oriented, but those releases did not make much of an impact despite his talent. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
