[littlerabbitbite91]

[marcelflisiuk]

Oh great just what we need another great piece that is to dam underrated.

[ulusot]

[Scikonaut]

tau ceti!!!

[Scikonaut]

that cosmic beach scene is too beautiful, makes me think of all the planets in our solar system, and those around our nearby stars: procyon, sirius, tau centaurus, bellatrix, fomalhaut, just to name a few of the locals.

[africanscribe]

Awesome track by an awesome dude. Thanks DAVO1984FI!

[blitzebill]

I have this slice of vinyl since the day it came out....sweet stuff.

[burtonnavox]

Bubbles is in a places all by its self. Look, as you listen to it just lay back eye close and just let your mind run free an when the notes start to flow through your hear you will understand that Herbie Hancock is a master mind of musical jazz.

[qwareverse]

if you got a hi-fi or just live for the quality of this album, buy this on vinyl or get it lossless with a hi-fi!

[nafeNafen]

Possible Nujabes/Fat Jon sample? (Nujabes/Fat Jon - Ask). its a possibility. this is such ill chillin vibes

[nishani3]

@nafeNafen I would say you are spot on with this being sampled by Nujabes and Fat Jon "Ask". That was cool that you made that link!

[GiZm0130]

I think this is the direction that Jimi Hendrix was goin into especially with his last album First Rays of the New Rising Sun. Im glad that someone could pick up where he left off in terms of creative genius.

[noloferratus]

I love the tone of this guys bass. Nice mix overall in my opinion.

All those great sounds with those ARP analog synthesizers, the Rhodes Electric Piano, and Hohner D6 Clavanet - not to mention ther great musicianship of all the players.

[conga71]

Who's on drums?

[swiftness84]

the great escape

[iccatering]

Herbie is one of the greatest to ever do music

[straightupkid]

I listened to this while high, it was amazing

[ELItheJEW420]

@straightupkid you should listen to maggot brain by funkadelic

[armycrps]

Thanks to whoever posted this. I remember when I was in the army in the barracks and many of my army buddies would have this LP and it was so good.

[Streamline09]

Great, great, great groove! Thanks.

[philosophersphone]

4:50

[Keyboardman88]

@philosophersphone

The sound that starts at abou 4:53 is..I believe.. an APR Odysse using te filter and the portamento set high/fast.

[BourneInDenver]

Guys, what synth effect is Herbie using at about 4:03? The deep sound! I love that and I need to know what that is!

[Keyboardman88]

@BourneInDenver THe sound is a Hohnor D6 Clavinet set to the bassiest setting.

[v2i2ks]

Oh man, why did they ever stop the LP's? The covers were just as good as the vinyl itself. Awesome kick back....Thank You

[HerkemerSeven]

@v2i2ks Just to make you purchase the same music over and over again as time passes....Funny thing is, the oldest technology is still the best!!!!!...............Peace H7

[RichMahogany732]

@v2i2ks i have this on vinyl

[autoracer1man]

You good person,I sure can second that!!!!

[bidul62]

What a pleasure!!!

I close eyes and I am in another world.

[kmal16]

me too, what a real gift to have that imaginative ability, maybe Bubbles might be the soundtrack to traveling back in a time machine. haha.

[JayPirat]

he used a 808 kick i think

[rattu123]

Impossible. The 808 is a 1981 gear and this album's from 1975. 808 is a great gear anyway, I've heard its kick could put down a building if its amplified very loud!

[JayPirat]

lol it was a joke

[rattu123]

Man, how dumb can I be? Sorry for trying to be a smartass LOL

[cireravilob]

That's an actual drum set

[viper914]

The change at 1:40 is just beautiful

[heru1966]

@viper914 Yes, it certainly is.

[heru1966]

What a beautiful track. Bennie Maupin's thoughtful and sensitive playing on soprano, really make the track for me. The way he vibes off the keyboards and mood of the piece-awesome. Especially check out 5:23 up to about 5:35 ...I'm not sure if even Miles could have placed a single sound any better. :-)

[PowderSpirit3]

what a beautiful share

and thx pj for the send :)

LOVELY

[valambiguous]

i can dig this slow and mellow groove. Nice!

[passjay]

hmmmm shhhhh

jh winks

[rievans57]

If you're into trippin' turn on your strobe light and fire up a hooter while groovin' to this freaky track. Great song to sex to as well.

[allenlevelle]

@rievans57 Hell yeah!!!!

[gabriel1459]

The best jazz fusion Album

[desertrosesand]

Molto grazie for this piece, it's the greatest of the album, for me, although I like it all the way around !
