About
<i>Maiden Voyage</i> sounds like the title of a debut, but it was Herbie Hancock’s fifth outing for Blue Note, recorded all in one day in March 1965, when the young piano master was in the thick of his association with the trailblazing Miles Davis Quintet. The <i>Maiden Voyage</i> lineup was in fact a version of Davis’ band, with Freddie Hubbard on trumpet in place of Davi, Wayne Shorter’s predecessor George Coleman on tenor saxophone, and the unrivaled rhythm section of bassist Ron Carter and drummer Tony William. (The same lineup, without Coleman, appeared on Hancock’s <i>Empyrean Isles</i> in 1964.) The short yet impactful program includes some of Hancock’s most famous and widely played composition, including the title track, with its mesmerizing vamp and hovering chords; “The Eye of the Hurricane,” with its darting obstacle course of a theme leading to galloping minor-key blues; and “Dolphin Dance,” a model of advanced harmony and lyrical songcraft, the perfect modern midtempo swing tune to bring it to a close. .
