This nicely selected retrospective tries to cram in 40-plus years of innovation from one of jazz's greatest instrumentalists. It's a tall order, but THEN AND NOW: THE DEFINITIVE HERBIE HANCOCK doesn't aim to be comprehensive. Instead, it skims the highlights, pulling from Hancock's early BLUE NOTE solo outings ("Maiden Voyage," "Cantaloupe Island") all the way through to his Joni Mitchell tribute, RIVER. In between are funk/fusion workouts (the eternally groovy "Chameleon") and early B-boy electro-groove (the indelible "Rockit" in a live version). The compilers might have swapped out Hancock's jazzy cover of Nirvana's "All Apologies" for one of his many sparkling originals, but this is a hits set, and those looking for a roundup of Hancock's best-known recordings will find THEN AND NOW fits the bill. |
