1. Ennea

   Ennea was the second album by jazz-rock band Chase. It did not repeat the commercial success of their debut album Chase. The original lineup from the first album was changed midway through the recording sessions, with Gary Smith taking over from Jay Burrid on drums and G. G. Shinn replacing Terry Richards on lead vocals. Sessions for the recording occurred August 31, 1971, at CBS/Columbia Studios in San Francisco and again between November 15-December 8th, 1971. The cost of the album went $120,000.00 over budget.The six songs on side two of the album comprise a progressive-jazz/rock suite entitled "Ennea", with lyrics based on Greek mythology. The album's title is the Greek word for nine, a reference to the nine band members. The lyrics to the suite were written by Bill Chase's longtime lady companion Erin Adair. The tune "Cronus" was originally used as an instrumental. The single "So Many People" (written by Paul Williams and performed by both him and The Neighborhood) saw limited airplay in the U.S. The album charted for just 12 weeks, peaking at #71. [1] Part of the song "Cronus" was featured in the intro to the Telewizja Polska show "Magazyn Kryminalny 997". Swanee River, which opens the album, was originally entitled "Closer to the feeling" and was going to have a quasi-Allman Bros. flavor, but the lyrics had yet to be written. When GG Shinn was listening to the playbacks in the studio, he noted the chord changes were the same as Stephen Foster's immortal 'Way down upon the Suwanee River' so the title was altered. It Won't Be Long was penned by Organist Phil Porter and initially it was much slower and had more of an "Asian" feel. Charlie Brent, re-arranged the song for the band to feature a screaming Trumpet solo for Bill and highlight the brilliance of the Trumpets more. The songs 'Darkest Days' and 'Listen To Her Sing' were slated to be included on the album; however, original vocalist Terry Richards was fired in November 1971 before recordings were completed The album cover was photographed in December 1971 by renowned Rock photographer Jim Marshall at the Music Concourse Plaza in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco

1. Ennea

   Ennea was the second album by jazz-rock fusion band Chase. It did not repeat the commercial success of their debut album, mostly due to the lack of a top 40 hit and the extended suite to Greek Mythology on side 2, which lacked the "commercial appeal" the first LP had. Ennea is basically a further refinement of the trumpet-rock innovations from the first LP, yet while the first album made its greatest impact in the sheer novelty of four trumpets plus a rock rhythm section, Ennea begins to explore the possibilities of this lineup and to challenge it. On this album, the group pull out all the stops and musically almost thumb their noses at BS&T and Chicago. The original lineup from the first album was changed midway through the recording sessions, with Gary Smith taking over from Jay Burrid on drums and G. G. Shinn replacing Terry Richards on lead vocals. The six songs on side two of the album comprise a jazz suite entitled "Ennea", with lyrics based on Greek mythology. The album's title is the Greek word for nine, a reference to the nine band members. The single "So Many People" saw limited airplay in the U.S. The album charted for just 12 weeks, peaking at #71.
