The most important "black funk manifesto" album that changed the very nature of music.
An important work from the heyday of the genius Herbie Hancock's electric music, which continues to have a wide-ranging and profound influence on music of the future, from jazz to funk and hip hop.
This album, which starts with the memorable intro "Chameleon", was his first to reach number one on the Billboard Jazz Chart. The backing musicians who participated in this album later formed "The Headhunters", and Herbie participated in it as a guest.
