Well, from all VSOP albums that extremly short studio album is the one that´s got only 1 or 2 times spinnin´ here. The first Number Skagly would be cool, but it´s more a backbeat tune and the acoustic bass in the manner it´s recorded doesn´t really fit in. This number would have been great with a fender bass. The others is missing the tension I´m used to, that medium tempo swing number could be fine, but always those stops not only in the theme but in the solos too...., I like the other one from that year 1979, I think it´s titled "Live under the Sky", that´s really top....

Posted 29 June Herbie Hancock – Magic Windows (Columbia, 1981) First listen. An extremely cool electro funk record. Now on: Herbie Hancock Trio With Ron Carter + Tony Williams (Columbia, 1981) Also first listen. Seems less good. It's like everything that made Hancock interesting in the 60s has been washed out of his acoustic playing by this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 29 June Didn't care much for this. It struck me as lacking warmth and unswinging. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
