Herbie Hancock reaffirmed his importance in modern Jazz history with this stunning album. Hancock always is a pioneer of Jazz music, and this album takes him to another level of Piano brilliance. Using outstanding musicians as backup compliments this album. With Trumpeter Freddie Hubbard and Saxophonist George Colman, Hancock explores each and every song on here with different rythmic spacing, and musical influences from Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman and even Art Blakey.

From "Maiden Voyage" to "Dolphin Dance" each and every song on this album is a delight to listen too.

A landmark recording!

  • ahhh...

  • @Franckydap1 Wikipedia claims he's alive...

  • @giggityiggity he died in 2008... maby his ghost

  • @bluelampjazz Yes, but if you do your homework, this album just like Kind of Blue by Miles are classified as "modal". Instead of haggling over semantics lets just enjoy these geniuses and their work. Bravo for your appreciation of it............

  • @starfly7 jazz harmony falls under two catagorys-modal or functional. functional fulfuills a purpose ie II-V-l. Modal is a long time based on one chord or scale. some tunes, including Dolphin dance have both elements. however, you can play functional over modal, or modal over functional harmony.

  • Truly one of the best jazz standards ever made.

    (presonaly my favourite)

  • I just saw Herbie tonight in Akron, OH. Such a brilliant musician!

  • @keyzcity You mean modal, tonal refers to certain languages like Chinese..........

  • just transcribed Herbie's first piano solo. It could be a lecture in a jazz theory class, but instead we can just listen to it and sigh.
