| 2. |  | River: The Joni Letters (with Bonus Tracks) - Amazon.com Exclusive by Herbie Hancock Price: $14.99 Customer Review:  Herbie Hancock takes classic Joni Mitchell tunes and makes them his own. Who knew that it would work so well? My favorite track is Court and Spark featuring Norah Jones on vocals. This is spell-binding. I heard this track on a plane, and immediately ordered the album. The rest of it is not quite as... |

| 4. |  | Maiden Voyage by Herbie Hancock Price: $10.99 Customer Review: This was the first Herbie Hancock recording I purchased after The Essential Herbie Hancock. I love everything Blue Note and Rudy Van Gelder, and since I was working on learning the title track, I decided to see what other sorts of tunes Herbie was composing at the time. I think this is probably one... |

| 6. |  | Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock Price: $10.99 Customer Review: Since its initial release in 1973, Herbie Hancock's "Head Hunters" album has become a fusion jazz classic and rightfully so. Much like his former boss Miles Davis as well as R&B artists like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, Herbie Hancock set out to make music that was innovative for its time and... |

| 7. |  | Thrust by Herbie Hancock Price: $8.99 Customer Review: "Thrust" is the ultimate statement by the Headhunters, and ranks as Herbie Hancocks best and funkiest album. Highlighted by the bombastic drumming of Mike Clark (who knew a white boy could groove THAT hard) "Palm Grease" features Herbie's now trademark Rhodes and Clavanet. Yet, "Thrust" features a... |

| 8. |  | Empyrean Isles by Herbie Hancock Price: $10.99 Customer Review: Herbie Hancock-Empyrean Isles ***** By the time of this release Herbie Hancock had already been with the great Miles Davis for over a year, which is the equivalent of four years at Juilliard School of Music. On Empyrean Isles, one of Herbie's earliest solo recordings we find the... |

| 9. |  | The Essential Herbie Hancock by Herbie Hancock Price: $24.98 Customer Review: Versatility is the most functional word to describe this living legend. Hancock (1940) is one of these emblematic artists of the jazz who has known to forge himself with untiring vocation to create an own sound, always learning from the greatest (Miles Davis, neither more nor less, Hubert Laws and... |

| 10. |  | The Miles Davis Quintet, 1965-68: The Complete Columbia Studio by Miles Davis Price: $55.97 Customer Review: If one wants to study the direction of contemporary music or jazz as some people call it, then look no further than to acquire this box set. Miles Davis has always been a trend setter and his magical group of Hancock, Shorter, Williams & Carter paved the way for jazz from modal to fusion. This... |

| 11. |  | Sextant by Herbie Hancock Price: $6.99 Customer Review: Listener beware: this is not your ordinary music fare. I was astonished by Hancock's "Thrust" and "Headhunters" super funk type albums (yes, they were new albums when I was in high school), so I saw this in the racks with the great artwork and thought, "this will be really good". But when I took it... |

| 12. |  | Hear, O Israel by Herbie Hancock Price: $14.99 Customer Review:  What can be bad when it comes to Herbie Hancock? Not much. However, this CD has little to do with a Sabbath service and a lot to do with the JAZZ. The music is great but don't be fooled into thinking you're going to hear great vocals. As a matter of fact, on some of the numbers the vocals are hardly... |

| 15. |  | The Best of Herbie Hancock: The Blue Note Years by Herbie Hancock Price: $15.98 Customer Review: This is a great introduction to Herbie Hancock as both a gifted Jazz Pianist and as a composer. These nine tracks capture him during his Blue Note period recording under his own name whilst still playing as Pianist for Miles Davis in the famous 1960's band. Starting with the famous 'Watermelon... |

| 16. |  | Gershwin's World by Herbie Hancock Price: $18.98 Customer Review: Herbie just won another Grammy last week with River: the Joni Letters, so I thought I'd come back to this, his last project on Verve. You won't find so much of standard tribute fare on Gershwin's World. It's more of a theme for some real creativity. There are two rhythmic fragments (including... |

| 17. |  | The Piano by Herbie Hancock Price: $11.98 Customer Review: Listening to "The Piano" performed by Herbie Hancock gave me greater appreciation of his genius as a jazz muscian. I have seen Herbie Hancock perform live in Europe and in the US. Having his CDs play in my home is the next best thing to seeing him live. |

| 18. |  | Dis Is Da Drum by Herbie Hancock Customer Review: This is a classic from Herbie, not hard jazz, more hip hip jazz. Love every song! Herbie can play straight up Jazz or hip new style jazz. He should have gotten a Grammy for this CD, but hey he does have 9 already. |

| 19. |  | Man-Child by Herbie Hancock Price: $12.98 Customer Review: This has to be the last in line of what I call the Herbie Hancock jazz-fusion trilogy, the previous two being "Headhunters" and "Thrust". Here he's managed to curb the interstellar jams and add two more songs to the album. Its full of amazing funk/fusion, the first being "Hang Up Your Hang Ups"... |

| 20. |  | Mwandishi: The Complete Warner Bros. Recordings by Herbie Hancock Price: $16.99 Customer Review: This is probably the best jazz compilation of all time. It contains three albums from Hancock's 1969-1970 band, and covers funk and the avant-garde. Disc one starts with the valuptious funk of the Fat Albert suite. A lot of this is based on blues-it is almost like the soundtrack work of Quincy... |

| 22. |  | Fat Albert Rotunda by Herbie Hancock Price: $17.99 Customer Review: If you like the early Crusaders, you will love Fat Albert Rotunda - Guaranteed. In fact, I do strong suspect this was the model for the Crusaders after they dropped "Jazz" from their moniker and re-invented their sound. The early Crusaders releases are strikingly similar to this music. My only... |

Beautiful compositions, and a virtuoso sense of playing make this album one for the ages...one people can listen to in one houndred years and still... |

| 24. |  | Cantaloupe Island by Herbie Hancock Price: $11.98 Customer Review: Although Herbie didn't record a mass of recordings for Blue Note like Jimmy Smith, Donald Byrd, and others, this collection (Compilation) focus more on his Uptempo, Fingersnappin' Tracks like the Title Track, "Watermelon Man", "Blind Man, Blind Man" & 3 others. Now for the Deep Jazz Heads I'd... |

| 25. |  | Takin' Off by Herbie Hancock Price: $9.49 Customer Review: Recorded in May 1962, midway through Herbie Hancock's two year Jazz apprenticeship that began the year before, all of the signs of his future greatness are here. Some of his electrifying talent and obvious promise are exemplified by his superb pianism: a solo rooted in the 1940s Blues and Stride... |

| 26. |  | Mr. Hands by Herbie Hancock Price: $12.98 Customer Review: It may not be the majestic spaced out funk of "Headhunters" and "Thrust", but "Mr. Hands" is Herbie's last artistic gasp during the classic fusion era of the 70's. This album has a more laid back smooth jazz vibe, but its far from watered down. Adding a touch of brazilian flavor into his Jazz Funk,... |

| 27. |  | My Point of View by Herbie Hancock Price: $7.97 Customer Review: Simply put, "Blind Man, Blind Man" is an attempt to come up with another "Watermelon Man" and scarcely rates one listen, so the addition of the alternate take is hardly a bonus (though Mobley deserves some credit for coming up with a few things to say on a single Bb7 chord). The other tracks are... |

| 28. |  | Future 2 Future by Herbie Hancock Customer Review: I'm sorry, but if you didn't understand this album, then you need to be educated. Ask yourself, where have YOU been, what have YOU been listening to. And after the thousands and thousands and thousands of tracks, if you still don't understand this album, if it doesn't connect with you, then you're... |

| 29. |  | V.S.O.P.: The Quintet by VSOP Customer Review: I actually heard this album before I was familiar with Miles Davis's mid-sixties work, so at the time I had no idea of the collective history of these musicians. All I knew was that this music was different, sometimes in subtle ways, from anything I'd ever heard before. Every member had a level of... |

| 30. |  | Corea/Hancock by Chick Corea & Herbie Hancock Customer Review: This music should have been recorded in a quiet studio, or in front of an audience behind glass. In the left side of my headphones (where Hancock plays) some audience members are coughing non-stop, and when I write non-stop, I mean non-stop; not just five or six times per minute. It's very... |
