“Head Hunters”—Herbie Hancock (1973) Added to the National Registry: 2007 Essay by Bob Gluck (Guest Post) *
“Head Hunters”—Herbie Hancock (1973) Added to the National Registry: 2007 Essay by Bob Gluck (guest post) * Original album Original label Herbie Hancock Herbie Hancock’s “Head Hunters” charted a new course for a musician who had come to see the entire world as his potential audience. In crafting this recording, Hancock renewed an historic idea while furthering something novel: jazz that audiences could dance to. Not since the big band era had jazz quite so successfully reached out a broad net, merging music for attentive listening with an approach that gave everybody something to hold onto. This had been the goal of late 1950’s and early 60’s “hard bop.” That music, made famous by drummer Art Blakey and pianist Horace Silver, injected widely beloved African American musical styles— gospel and the Blues—into modern jazz. By softening bebop’s blazing fast angularity, hard boppers crafted a more accessible, finger snapping, more populist style. In fact, this was the music Herbie Hancock first played as he began his professional career at the beginning of the 1960s with Donald Byrd’s band and on his own early recordings. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Hancock’s mentor, Miles Davis, began to update this concept of bridging popular Black music—R&B and funk--with jazz. Yet it was Hancock’s “Head Hunters” that most successfully reached the younger generation with this new synthesis. Hancock first gained the attention of a wider public when his 1962 hard bop tune “Watermelon Man” became, in the hands of Mongo Santamaria, a Latin dance craze.

How We Got Here
Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 9, no. 2, pp. 97-100 (Summer 2013) How We Got Here Kevin Fellezs You’ll Know When You Get There: Herbie Hancock and the Mwandishi Band. By Bob Gluck. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2012, 288 pp. $37.50. Bob Gluck’s You’ll Know When You Get There offers an insider’s view of Herbie Hancock’s so-called Mwandishi Band through extensive use of interviews with the band members and a mix of descriptive and musical theory analyses of selected recordings. Written in an accessible style, Gluck focuses on Hancock’s most experimental period, calculating the various ways in which Hancock and his bandmates—bassist Mchezaji Buster Williams, drummer Jabali Billy Hart, reedist Mwile At Akya Bennie Maupin, trombonist Pepo Mtoto Julian Priester, and trumpeter Mganga Eddie Henderson—negotiated the post- bop/post-free jazz world emerging in the mid- to late-1960s. Gluck notes a number of stylistic tendencies in Hancock’s music at the time, a blend of a quality Gluck terms “abstraction” and funkiness, which developed from the pianist’s variegated musical interests. Similar to many artists throughout jazz's long history, Hancock played with the tensions between art and commerce. The celebrated experimental efforts of the band were modified by a keen interest in commercial values as the title of the book, a song Hancock composed for an Eastern Airlines commercial, indicates. By tracing the formative years prior to the Mwandishi band’s first recording, Gluck offers a narrative that resists privileging either side of that equation, balancing his primary focus on the music with an acknowledgment of the economic pressures attendant to professional music careers.
