One of my favorite tunes by Return To Forever
(too bad that Chick's Moog has a fucked up oscillator and goes out of tune)
The Sorceress
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSksWyHsYw8
featuring Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, Lenny White, Al Di Meola
not their most technical tune but it just has such an awesome heavy groove and cool vibe to it, some nice melodies too and I like how they incorporate some psychedelic George Clinton stuff into it plus many Brazilian, Caribbean and Mediterranean elements.
Funny thing is, all four have rhythmicality and articulation as their strongest skills although their are known as speed wizards or whatever. They really stood out in the Fusion movement because of their sense of rhythm and groove.
That's why I think tunes like "The Sorceress" are better than the tunes where they played bazillion notes per second, the time signatures and themes changed after every 5 seconds etc.
Tunes like this (they are cool too of course)
