@@TheMisterGriswold are you sure?
I heard that apparently Bill Evans may have sat in on this one 🤔
Incredible solo and great transcription!
LH chord voicing tied between bar 16-17 goes DGC.
so SWINGING !!!! THE BEST OF THE BEST !!1
A beauty!
I think this is one of Herbie's best solos - not only does it swing great and have some impressive licks as you'd expect from the best jazz musicians, but it also has poetry and is impressively structured. And he was only 23 when he performed this! I think, like Chick Corea, his best solos came near the beginning of his career - later on when he became involved in jazz fusion and pop he tended to repeat himself and his solos while often inventive didn't have quite that level of fluency and ingenuity. Keith Jarrett on the other hand, remained remarkably consistent throughout his career (he was at his best as a mainstream jazz performer) and while not the most versatile overall he's the best of the three. Though I wonder how much of this solo was improvised on the spot and how much was prepared (even though this was live, he could well have practiced it like a classical pianist practicing a piano concerto or solo piece for a concert and Herbie did have a classical background) - the passage bars 42-49 starting 1:24 (particularly 47-49) does sound carefully conceived and it's hard to believe he could have just come up with that with a split second to think about it.
To the uploader - this along with other great solos (notably Autumn Leaves and All of You) have already been transcribed in this invaluable set of Hancock transcriptions by Bill Dobbins (who also did the classic Chick Corea album "Now He Sings, Now He Sobs"). It was published in 1992 and I got it as a Christmas present the same year, but that was over 30 years ago and it seems to be out of print. But you can actually view the whole set in reasonable quality at this link: www.jaspersoffers.com/sheets/partituras_piano_herbie_hancock_-_classic_jazz_composition___piano_solos.pdf Your transcription is pretty accurate but there were some mistakes in the left hand chords, and any jazz musician who is drawing inspiration from Herbie's solos needs to be able to harmonize well as well as have a fluent and melodic right hand with a convincing jazz flavour.
Outstanding work. I would make the ghost note in bar 22 just a full pitched lower F-natural, but that's my hearing of it, and I can understand why it could be heard as a ghost note.
great accurate transcription ,,thank you
great work
Tony Williams drumming on this track is fantastic
Thank you for sharing your hard effort.

The transcriber did a great job! Good for you! But there are some mistakes harmonically and rhythmically in left hand. Herbie Hancock's style is very difficult to transcribe. I ruined two tape recorders try transcribing his solos and compings. But very well! Good for you!
My god those runs
