Hancock, Herbie - Thrust

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON COLUMBIA 1975

Columbia PC 32965 made in US.

Vinyl NM. Cover VG.

Herbie Hancock on top of his incredibly funky game. The cover of Thrust reveals a lot of the album. Herbie's sitting comfortably in his spaceship controlled by a synth from an alien world, reaching to the clouds and beyond. Well, that's what his stature was in 1974 - one of the seminal renewers of Jazz by incorporating new electric instruments like the ARP synthesizer. Again, only four songs on this single LP, each around 10 minutes long. "Butterfly" is a great spacy jam with intricate twists and turns. And when hearing the intro drum break of "Palm Grease", you know this is a must-have album for all you groove addicts!
