Recommendations
Reviews
- Looking for a jacket in reasonably decent shape, if anyone has a junked copy of the LP...
Direct comparison to 2019 MOV https://www.discogs.com/release/13110819-Herbie-Hancock-Mwandishi :
This original press is warmer, smoother, more “analog tape” sounding. At the expense of some clarity (snare drum, for example), but avoiding harshness in more aggressive passages.
The compositions and performance are stunning - a highlight in Herbie’s long career.
