(Also BTW, that intro will be familiar as a sample-- to any fans of Tribe Called Quest's "The Love Movement")

Do you have a preference? Rudy is the Master, but in this instance, I kinda like the feel and sound of the DuNann recording.......

I like them both. Took a few listens to get used to. It does give the recording a different dimension. "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

I see. I thought it almost seemed to have a more intimate feel, but I'm probably hearing the separation....

well actually, tA is the expert --I'm just a fan...but I would say it depends on what kind of sounds you like from Herbie ...Overall, I think Maiden Voyage and Speak Like A Child are the best places to start, but that's just my personal opinion. Anyone else want to opine on this? I know that a lot of funk and electric music fans start in the 70's with Headhunters, Thrust and Man -Child, and then move backwards and forwards from there...

I'm a true believer in starting at the top with artists like Herbie Hancock. As a warning, based on what you've indicated you're going to start with, the 60s catalog is his pre-Funk period. However it gives you insight into the tremendous harmonic/melodic foundation which is at his core throughout. In addition to the good suggestions paligap gave, here's a sampling of his early work with some tracks you might recognize.

I know "Watermelon Man" from David Benoit. I'm a fan of David's version, but it doesn't sound nearly as good as Herbie's. I really enjoy soul/funk/r&b music that's why I thought I'd start with the '70s. I'm a fan of what's considered "smooth jazz", more so than the traditional jazz. But I can get get an album from the '60s to get more insight....and maybe my mind/taste will change
Thanks again. | |
