Herbie Hancock – River: The Joni Letters – LP

Double Vinyl LP, Grammy Album of the Year

The legendary pianist explores the words and music of fellow innovator Joni Mitchell on River: The Joni Letters, winner of the 2008 Grammy for Album of the Year. Joined by Wayne Shorter, Lionel Loueke, Dave Holland and Vinnie Colaiuta — plus guest vocalists Norah Jones, Tina Turner, Corinne Bailey Rae, Luciana Souza, Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell herself — the musicians play with a restraint and elegance that balances adventurous jazz improvisation with deep emotional directness.
