Herbie Hancock And The Rockit Band - Herbie Hancock And The Rockit Band
Review by Eddie Weingart
Herbie Hancock And The Rockit Band's self-titled album is a masterpiece of fusion music. The album, released in 1983, includes a mix of funk, rock, and electronic music, which was a departure from Hancock's previous jazz work. The album features a star-studded lineup of musicians, including Bill Laswell, Michael Beinhorn, and Grand Mixer DXT.
The album's opening track, "Rockit," is a groundbreaking piece of music that uses turntable scratching and electronic beats to create a unique sound that was ahead of its time. The track was a commercial success, reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The rest of the album is equally impressive, with tracks like "Future Shock," "TFS," and "Earth Beat" showcasing Hancock's skill as a composer and musician. The album's fusion of different genres creates a sound that is both innovative and accessible, making it a classic of 1980s music.
