Herbie is a jazz guy.. For him to dive into Electro of the 80's to make one of the greatest jams ever is a great testament to the genre and his talent!!
You said the word: masterpiece. It such is. HH and his band demonstrated they could discover the future with their musical journey. I love the way this is a techno track but still a jazz masterpiece. HH was way beyond his season on this one. Just amazing!!!
Jesus H. that was so mind blowing to see the song performed live...And the way the crowd was dancing to it. that's when Club music was still music played by bands. Expertly done by a Master musician and his group. He learned from the best...Miles D.
Sorry, but this was Tyne Tees studio in Newcastle. How do I know? I was there/ In fact you can see me in the video at 3:10, leaning on the speaker, bottom left!
Chicago, mid-eighties, Limelight bar - had the "dancing legs" circling above the bar. "How absolutely cool," thought I - until I was introduced to GRACE JONES...Laid back and GROOVED on a rainy day!
en los primeros dias de clase en la universidad vi unos chicos con una grabadora tocando algo muy ritmico que jamas habia escuchado , mientras bailaban como robots , ...break dance !!!!
@@johnd1466 I remember him has Grandmixer DST (Representing Delancy Street) and in recent posts he is calling HIMSELF Grandmixer DXT. Not sure why the change either ?
when i see this ,,dope ,, chill ham,,,they has all hiphop things .lisen scratch！ that we know what a hiphop . there re hiphop , &any were scratch make whata doope 。 like cut what isit !fresh thx
hell ya, so distinctive sounding...Neil Peart (Rush drummer) had a full set behind his stool on a rotating platform with his sick massive Pearl DX acoustics up front- played BOTH sets as they revolved around him, during the YYZ solo! You physically could feel the rolls thudding into your chest! I was *there* front row, Moving Pictures tour '82. Almost got a broken stick tip in the forehead lol! Caught a pick Alex (guitarist) zinged right to me. Great show... Also, if I recall correctly, Rick Allen (Def Lep drummer) worked with Simmons to develop a custom designed set after he lost an arm rolling his Corvette...really gave them that distinct top/bottom syncopated sound. 💪🤘

I love the way this is a techno track but still a jazz masterpiece.
HH was way beyond his season on this one. Just amazing!!!
This is when life was simple. Beat childhood! Being a kid in the 80"s was fantastic!
The 80 were fantastics
Это супер! Я помню 80е. Было весело!
The Video changed my life as a kid.... still loving it in my 50s. This live performance is just awesome!!
So many People, So many Robots, So many Keyboards... i love it!^^

So much Hip Hop
That stage was a mad house that's why i love the 80s

Con este tema de alli vino el break dance gracias Herbie
80s Beautiful Hip Hop. Hip music sounds. DJ. Scratch. Jazz. Funk. Dance. Beat. Rhythm. I wanna be cool, too. Fantastic.
Love the mallets on the conga and bongos ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Back in the days just before music ended .... enjoy
Music hasn't ended silly.
I am blown away, how much went into producing just that one performance. Total respect due, super funky fresh
Herbie Hancock, a man for every season👍🏾
This man was way ahead of his time ON PLANET EARTH
I remember starting a weekend watching this as an impressionable 12 year old.
Changed my life.
For a single song...everyone went rockit!
Love this extra footage ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Saw Herbie with steel pulse in the early 80s during the rock it tour ! Great show !
I remember watching this and immediately loved it for all it's weirdness. And the track itself was ''Fresh''
Clássico do Break!
Amazing performance
Awesome👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Brilliant
Quite rare for a jazzer not to insist on showing off his chops, as they so often do. Hancock has a great sense of restraint and taste.
the best . México love Herbie hancock
Absolutely amazing...hearing Herbie’s technical fire on the beginning of electronica...mind blowing
the beginning of electronica ?? have you heard of Kraftwerk ?
@@ramiroc5215 yessir. I haven’t dug into Kraftwerk like I have Herbie.

Brilliant track with an excellent stage setting in the studio, they went to great lengths!

Love to hear Herbie light it up at the end!

Крутяк
Crazy house
Saludos a mis superfreakbreakers amigoteees! Yeaaaah!
uhh those Simmons SDSV beauties, cold bloodedly cool...
hell ya, so distinctive sounding...Neil Peart (Rush drummer) had a full set behind his stool on a rotating platform with his sick massive Pearl DX acoustics up front- played BOTH sets as they revolved around him, during the YYZ solo! You physically could feel the rolls thudding into your chest! I was *there* front row, Moving Pictures tour '82. Almost got a broken stick tip in the forehead lol! Caught a pick Alex (guitarist) zinged right to me. Great show...
Also, if I recall correctly, Rick Allen (Def Lep drummer) worked with Simmons to develop a custom designed set after he lost an arm rolling his Corvette...really gave them that distinct top/bottom syncopated sound. 💪🤘
Show..!
