Herbie Hancock Discography

At the moment, I’d be inclined to call Herbie Hancock the greatest jazz pianist of his generation. The early Blue Note recordings are…

Herbie’s first includes the swinging “Watermelon Man” and cosmopolitan jazz featuring Dexter Gordon and Freddie Hubbard.

Basically all the goodness of his debut album plus the added joy of electric guitar.

An early sign of Herbie’s experimental side, the focus here is on percussion and improvisation over melody.

An impressive hard-bop buffet of cantaloupe and egg featuring three-fifths of the Miles Davis Quintet plus Freddie Hubbard.

Hancock and his Miles Davis mates set sail for a second album that represents the high-water mark of Herbie’s Blue Note recordings.

One of the least diabolical of Shorter’s Blue Note albums, featuring Herbie Hancock on piano.

A confident continuation of the modal jazz explored on Maiden Voyage, now with a sextet.

Jazz played with humor, humanity and one helluva backing band.

New band, new names and a new language of jazz that set into motion a trio of groundbreaking elpees.

A way bitchin’ solo album/tone poem from Z that pre-dates the Weather Report gig and features Miroslav Vitous, Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock.

Moog and mellotron make an appearance on what may be Hancock’s most adventurous album to date.

If you thought Crossings was a trip, wait until you enter the uncharted waters of Sextant.
