賀比.漢考克,1940年4月12日出生於芝加哥,為最成功的爵士音樂家之一。他的首張專輯”Takin’ Off”(1961)以熱門歌曲”Watermelon Man”開場且使他賺了兩倍的金額,因為他保留了自己的版權。從1963年開始,漢考克成為新Miles Davis五重奏的一員,與成員Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter和Tony Williams,成為現代爵士樂團的同名團體。漢考克已經在家鄉芝加哥獲得了他的第一項爵士經歷—在作為一位古典鋼琴神童的階段—與Donald Byrd和Coleman Hawkins並列的成功。受到當地鋼琴家Chris Anderson和Bill Evans的和聲理論影響,賀比.漢考克發展出自己的音樂風格,將時髦的硬波普鋼琴à la Horace Silver結合為更開放的和聲法。根據他與Donald Byrd的錄音,一個可以追溯將他推向顛峰的作品。除了漢考克的第一張唱片,此套裝我們還節選了他早期與音樂家朋友們所出版的經典唱片集: 包括Freddie Hubbard, Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, Dexter Gordon, George Coleman, Grant Green, Sonny Rollins, Jackie McLean, Hank Mobley和Lee Morgan,最後也包括以晚期Miles Davis五重奏作為對照,在漢考克加入樂團前,戴維斯的最後幾張唱片。
