Very Focused!

I agree with some reviewers here who see the collection as well rounded, and to me, well focused on some wondeful, but ignored Hancock.
It begins with the "Sorcerer" which Miles Davis explored, and then moves to the often trivialized Columbia efforts like "4 A.M." Both of these tunes got less commercial play than the breakaway Blue Note stuff like "Canteloupe Island" and "Maiden Voyage."
The fun come sin discoveries for many novice hancock fans, like his jive'n "People Music" which just blows me away!
I have not always liked Hancock's efforts, but would kill to hear him play, and covet every disc I have ever had by him..and that includes vinyl for those of you who ARE novices! This is sure to fit on your shelf of favorites!

I'm usually wary of compilations, but this turned out great. A well-rounded selection, varying moods, and some of Hancock's greatest make this a "must-listen."
Herbie Hancock at His Best!
