Reviews

    What was said before about AP, MM, Tone Poet, is true and even more, all three are excellent pressings, however it is more musical to be able to listen to a 33 1/3, two-sided, instead of a 45, four-sided, to increase the value, and increase the profits of the Record company.

      This album is absolute genius and finds Herbie Hancock and his band an absolute perfect form. A must have for any serious, Herbie Hancock Fan.
