HERBIE HANCOCK "INVENTIONS AND DIMENSIONS" Blue Note This album is unbelievably stylish and funky in ways that a true xltronic will find infinitely rewarding, even though it's an 'accoustic' record! It's rythmic explorations should not be hard to approach for anyone accustomed to electronica. This is what blue not had to say about it when it was reissued on cd in 1989: For his third album, Inventions and Dimensions, Herbie Hancock changes musical styles by explored a Latin-inflected variation of post-bop with a small quartet. Hancock is the main harmonic focus of the music — his three musicians were bassist Paul Chambers, drummer Willie Bobo and percussionist Osvaldo "Chihuahua" Martinez, who plays conga and bongo. It is true that the music is rhythm-intensive, but that doesn't mean its dance music. Hancock has created an improvisatory atmosphere where the rhythms are fluid and the chords, harmonies and melodies are unexpected. On every song but one, the melodies and chords were improvised, with Hancock's harmonic ideas arising from the rhythms during the recording. The result is risky, unpredictable music that is quite satisfying. Inventions and Dimensions displays his willingness to experiment with a different sound and flavor of music. |

Coltrane played with Miles Davis on a number of Davis' albums - most notably Kind of Blue. Which one childkiller is referring to is anyone's guess. :) |

Over at the Mu Board, I remember some people were comparing Squarepusher's jazzy stuff to Weather Report. I'm so into the jazz fusion thing - but I'll definitely check them out. If we're offering jazz recommendations mine would have to be: Ornette Coleman - The Shape of Jazz to Come |

What kind of mood on that? I used to love kinds of blue but now I find it dour. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and i'd say that WR's jazzy/fusion stuff is a way better than Sq's...(though i love everything Tom does:) Weather Report are REALLY worth checking out. you won't be disappointed :) |
