It did [Dolphin Dance]. Covered by both Ahmad Jamal & Grover, found in fake books, absorbed into the mainstream via osmosis.

Maiden Voyage was my second Herbie Hancock album, Empyrean Isles being the first.  I got both circa my junior/senior years of high school.  This would have been very early 1980s.  I also had The Real Book by this time, and while I was no expert then - nor now, for that matter - my sense was that "Dolphin Dance" was one of Herbie's most well-known tunes, next to "Chameleon" and, a year or two later, "Rockit."

Fascinating record from a Hungarian group recording with John Tchicai. I hear influences by Albert Ayler, Abdullah Ibrahim and Pharoah Sanders. Some free passages, spiritual jazz, free improvisation and compositional music. Pretty adventurous stuff. I’d call this my 2024 discovery for now.

Perhaps some prejudice of me but I did not expect a 1983 record from Hungary to sound so good!

Maybe they already know it but I am pretty sure this is the league of @mjazzg@Rabshakeh@soulpope and perhaps also @HutchFan

Nice one. Yes, I have it and was equally pleased when I bought mine. Haven't listened to it for a while but shall dig it out

Whilst talking about Tchicai, have you got this one @Pim? Not to be missed

Thoughts? 

On my list to try and snag this evening

Yeah, it's nice - and very varied stylistically too, something for everyone for the audience who were there. Originally wasn't going to get this one on LP but succumbed. Sonically it isn't audiophile but is very acceptable. I'm not a fan overall of the Yusef Atlantics and this one is very much in his acoustic/non-fusion bag. Lots of solo space for Kenny Barron, not surprisingly.

yeah, plan to get this and the Mal on CD. I suppose the Rollins and Ra too. My lone experience with Resonance LPs wasn't super great.

I've been happy with their LPs to date. The one time I did have a defective disk they shipped out a replacement from the US pretty pronto.
