Herbie Hancock: Next Steps

Pianist and composer Herbie Hancock's music, best known for riding the line between jazz, funk and pop, sometimes rings with a true cosmopolitan sound. The shuffling drums and rich orchestration of “Blind Man, Blind Man” melt fabulously into sublime chords and bluesy piano riffs; “Come Running to Me” has an infectious tropical vibe that runs with shades of disco and French pop.
