Description
Robinsongs is thrilled to be able to pull together on one package three of Herbie Hancock's greatest Jazz Funk albums 'Thrust', 'Manchild' and 'Secrets'.
'Thrust' released in 1974 was the follow up to the platinum selling album 'Headhunters', 'Thrust' reached No.13 on the Billboard album chart exactly the same chart position as 'Headhunters'. The album featured only four tracks, and this Robinsongs' version gives you the single edits of the four tracks as bonus tracks.
'Manchild' is probably Herbie's funkiest album and features the single 'Hang Up Your Hang Ups' which featured great guitar licks by Wah Wah Watson. The album also featured Louis Johnson (Brothers Johnson), Stevie Wonder & Harvey Mason to name but a few. Again the album fared really well making No. 21 on the Top 200 albums chart.
This reissue includes the 7" versions of 'Hang Up Your Hang Ups' and 'Sun Touch' as bonus tracks.
'Secrets' kicks off with the Jazz Funk classic 'Doin' It' which featured both Wah Wah Watson & Ray Parker Jr on guitar, it doesn't get funkier than that. And once again there are the single edits of 'Doin' It' and 'People Music' included as bonus tracks.
Package includes liner notes from MOJO's Lois Wilson.
