Herbie Hancock on Purity
The 2004 reissue conveys the groundbreaking jazz piano of 1968.
"Speak Like a Child," recorded by Herbie Hancock in 1968 and reissued in 2004, is a masterpiece representative of his time with Blue Note. The unique arrangement, incorporating flugelhorn and alto flute, creates a soft, dreamy sound world. As a work that brilliantly embodies the experimental spirit and lyricism of jazz in the late 1960s, it occupies an important place in jazz history.
