I like some of the late 70's records from him. Like Sunlight and Feets don't fail me now. Also Mr. Hands and secrets are really good.

I'll tell you a great CD of his that gets overlooked...the slightly avant garde-like soundtrack to Death Wish. I had that on 8-track :shock: and played it until I wore it out. Lots of cool Fender Rhodes electric piano! I gotta look into getting it on CD but I think it's only a collectable now on ebay and fetching really high prices :roll:

I've always been a big fan of Herbie. "Rockit" was one of the first singles I ever bought.

For me though, the real magic was discovering "Mwandishi", "Crossings" and the mighty "Sextant" real avant-garde electronic / jazz crossover and totally different from the stuff that he did with "Headhunters" onwards.

Oh yes. If you have a copy of "Sound System" (the excellent follow up to "Future Shock") and play "Metal Beat", has anyone else noticed a lot of the track is a cut up of Yes' "Leave It" from "90125"?

Headhunters is another good album of Herbie's.

I once made a 15 minute cut-up remix version of Rockit.

Herbie made Rockit with dub-meister Bill Laswell (who often works with Pete Namlook on the Psychonavigation series on the FAX label) and Michael Bienhorn.
