The Loop is an original Chick Corea composition performed by Chick Corea, Miroslav Vitouš, and Roy Haynes. It appears on the live ECM album Trio Music, Live in Europe, released in 1986 after being recorded in September 1984 in Willisau and Reutlingen. The track runs about 6 minutes and 28 seconds and showcases Corea's piano with the tight interplay of Vitouš's bass and Haynes's drums. The album marks a revival of Corea's 1960s trio and features original material alongside standards, all within a jazz framework.
