Jazz / Post Bop / Piano Trio
Herbie Hancock's second album released under this title, 1982's The Herbie Hancock Trio features the pianist backed by his fellow former Miles Davis alum, bassist Ron Carter and drummer Tony Williams. As with the trio's 1977 debut, the 1982 outing finds the group reuniting for a set of standards and originals. This is swinging, sophisticated jazz done in a straight-ahead style. Recorded at CBS/Sony Shinanomachi Studio, Tokyo, Japan on July 27, 1981 by Sony PCM-1600 Digital Recording System.
I must agree with another reviwer who called this a hidden gem. As a fan of acoustic Herbie, I had been searching for some time for a trio recording with Carter and Williams. No one should doubt the sheer intensity of recordings such as MAIDEN VOYAGE and EMPYREAN ISLES, but if you're searching for a pleasant divergence from Freddie Hubbard or George Coleman, then you've come to the right place.
The most startling difference between this and past Herbie records is the magnificent bass sound. It sounds as if the studio engineers by 1981 had figured out how to properly mic an acoustic bass with little to no 'clunkiness'. What you get instead is an acoustic bass sound as smooth as you're ever going to hear. The highlight of this recording is the Hancock original, 'Dolphin Dance,' which grows from its soft, elegant melody into an absolute barn burner. 'A Slight Smile' is a nice deviation with a foot in the classical realm. All five tracks are superb, and well worth the price of this import. It will be a vital piece of your Herbie collection.
