Description:Even by the high-water marks set by Herbie Hancockâ??s tremendous 1960s Blue Note output, 1965â??s Maiden Voyage remains one of the pinnacle artistic achievements of the great pianistâ??s career. Hancock is joined here by his Miles Davis Quintet bandmates Ron Carter on bass and Tony Williams on drums, along with Freddie Hubbard on trumpet and George Coleman on tenor saxophone. The quintet embarks on an oceanic exploration of five original Hancock compositions, several of which have since become enduring standards of the jazz lexicon including the title track, â??Eye of the Hurricane,â? and â??Dolphin Dance.â? This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is all-analog, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal. - RUDY VAN GELDER SERIE

Eugene S. - 23/Sep/2022 5 of 5 Stars!
The fifth album led by jazz musician Herbie Hancock, and was recorded by Rudy Van Gelder on March 17, 1965. It is a concept album aimed at creating an oceanic atmosphere. As such, many of the track titles refer to marine biology or the sea, and the musicians develop the concept through their use of space.[4][5] The album was presented with the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999.

This is an absolutely essential jazz album. Captures Hancock at his finest as a leader, soloist, and composer.
