  • Jazz at it's greatest !

  • herbie hancock just rockit. peace.

  • god i love herbie hancock. he makes the piano sound like a harp.

  • R I P Freddie 12/29/2008

  • Thanks Herbie for the Voyage.

  • you can almost TASTE the buddhism in a herbie solo. what a special touch he has.

  • this is one of those videos you completely get lost in, 7 minutes of nothing and you wake up when theres suddenly no music and turn it on again.

  • so nice...

  • HERBIE HANCOCK YEAH!

  • This is it

  • Love Joe quoting Moonlight serenade near the end! 

    Man, what a great video. If I could have only been there to see it live!

  • yes, I noticed. Around 6:30.. It woke me up after getting lost in the song.

  • a master piece of herbie...this is a pure trip.modern jazz is so inventive, i love it!!!

  • Like Freddie, Herbie really knows how to create drama through surprise contrasted with pattern. Those bursts of lines and then rhythmic repitions. Great improvisers understand the balance between repitition and surprise.

  • you're spot on man. When people just play patterns it is simply unpredictable and mechanical/robotic sounding, not musical. But then again, just playing a bunch of hip interesting, shall I say surprising stuff it's not gonna say much in the overall scheme of things. I hadn't really thought of this concept before I read your comment.

  • They are all so good! Freddie, Herbie, Joe, Ron and Tony. Legends.

  • I mentioned this in a comment to part 1. Everyone u see (except 4 Joe Henderson) was part of the original recording of this song back in 1965. Cool, huh?

  • Herbie is so incredible. I love his way to improvise.And Ron Carter is also great, I love how he supports Herbie. Tony Williams is one of the best drummers ever. What a great video

  • I love Hancock improvisation style, he is one of the best jazz musicians

  • Herbie's the premier pianist/innovator/improviser of our time. The master has done it over and over again. I was fortunate enough to see Herbie, Ron and Al Foster at the Blue Note in NYC for a whole week back in '90 and '91. They also played Maiden Voyage and they went to the cosmos and back on that one. It's a different dynamic w/Al who plays sensitively and listens more than any drummer I've seen or heard. I still have the live tapes on that whole week. It was a different vibe each night.
