Herbie’s been mostly playing the same 6-7 tunes… mostly for nearly the last decade! Song stats (scroll down just a bit) for everything in setlist.fm for Herbie (all years)… https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html   And here’s year-by-year stats (again, scroll down slightly) for each of the nearly last 10 years… https://www.setlist.fm/stats/covered/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2025 https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2024 https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2023 https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2022 (skipping the two pandemic years) https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2019 https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2018 https://www.setlist.fm/stats/herbie-hancock-3d6b557.html?year=2017  

Not sure.  I bought it new back when it first came out.

Is he gonna be playing that old shit?

Before I go on to the 1970's Fantasy albums, a last remark on the Verve period: While Universal never did reissue all of Tjader's 16 Verve albums as CDs - 9 were in the US, 1 only in Japan, 2 more  by a UK label, 1 was on Tico 3 never made it to CD - there were plenty of compilations. It already started in the LP era: This was released in 1967 an so could not cover the last three LPs. This 1969 twofer combined the first LP, In A Latin Bag, with Several Shades of Jade and Breeze From The East, omitting one track.  This 1973 twofer covered the whole Verve period. Another 1974 twofer with a different selection. The CD era brought us half a dozen compilations in the various series Universal thought up: At least they show that all the master tapes were still in existence. Eddie Palmieri, suprisingly, is the only compiler covering the album with Ogerman's strings - well, he also arranged a few tracks for el sonido nuevo. There is surprisingly little overlap. For details look at my discography or the discogs entries
