Recorded three years after his groundbreaking Maiden Voyage LP,
this 1968 date features the pianist/composer leading a trio which
includes his Miles Davis bandmate, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer
Mickey Roker, augmented by a three-piece horn section featuring
alto flute, bass trombone, and Thad Jones on flugelhorn. This
unique configuration was inspired by the orchestral timbres of Gil
Evans's voicings, filtered through a 1960s syncopated perspective.
Remastered by the original session engineer, Rudy Van Gelder,
Hancock's percussive, yet flowing pianisms are more detailed in
front of the evocative woodwind arrangements. Several jazz
standards flowed from this date. The maze-like "Riot" and "The
Sorcerer" were both recorded by Davis--as well as the dreamy bossa
nova title track. Hancock plays with his patented style of
"controlled freedom," and this LP paved the way for his future
forays in modern music.
