Herbie Hancock - Empyrean Isles - Blue Note Classic LP

Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series — 180g LP, Mastered by Kevin Gray from the Original Master Tapes

Recorded in 1964, Empyrean Isles is widely considered Herbie Hancock's first masterpiece, distilling the full breadth of his artistry into a sweeping 35-minute journey. Joined by Freddie Hubbard, plus Miles Davis Quintet bandmates Ron Carter and Tony Williams, Hancock moves from the blistering "One Finger Snap" to the unforgettable groove of "Cantaloupe Island" and the avant-leaning 14-minute epic "The Egg." This Classic Vinyl Edition is stereo, all-analog, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
