Herbie Hancock - Sound System 1985

[schinder1]

J.T. Lewis - the "Killer" Drummer - sooo goddamn Funky!!! But the best Suit wears Jeff Bova an the Keyboards... haha!

This is fascinating! I'd always assumed Sound System was just widely passed off as an album of Rockit clones. For me, this puts it in a whole new light. Herbie, you god among men!

would be great if there was a dvd of this concert!

[macanimator]

I'm sure there is. This is a professionally filmed video. It's probably on VHS somewhere. Good luck finding it, however.

Ack, I forgot... this was a HUGELY influential album - for when I was making my own computer music in the late 1980s and 1990s.

To have the (sample-sequence based) album is interesting enough. To see it done live (here) is an experience.

This is almost a "new" (and very hip) style of music!!
