About

"Inventions and Dimensions" is the third album by Herbie Hancock, recorded on August 30, 1963, for Blue Note Records. It features Hancock with bassist Paul Chambers and percussionists Willie Bobo and Chihuahua Martinez. The album was reissued in the 1970s as Succotash, credited to Hancock and Bobo, but with the sides reversed. Inventions and Dimensions is unusual in prominently featuring Latin percussion whilst not being a Latin jazz album, rather presenting Hancock's further exploration of modal jazz and post-bop idioms. Personnel Herbie Hancock – piano Paul Chambers – bass Willie Bobo – drums, timbales Osvaldo "Chihuahua" Martinez – percussion (not on track 5).
