Herbie Hancock

3 1/2

Hancock was staying as true to title as any ambitious jazz man could in the early 60's, taking off into his own dimensions with this early boundary-breaker, a solidly hot, trippyily-bopped travelogue which for all classically honed moments does have experimental indulgences as well.

Hi there. I think that what you say is basically true. However, a lot of people actually recognize your innovations as your own and give you credit for introducing sophisticated synth work into jazz-fusion. A s far as Hancock is concerned I never thought of him as an innovator in terms of synths. More as a brilliant jazz pianist who enjoyed playing all sorts of electric keyboards, which is ok too.

This is a great surround mix! The sound is tight, clean, and punchy! This one benefits from the 5.1 mix. I waited for awhile to get this one, it was worth the wait. The keyboard layers in Chameleon are awesome! The overall blend of the album is incredible- solid rhythm grooves with crisp, clear keyboards, sax, synth, and percussion. A must have for anyone who appreciates a wide range of music!
