Limited clear vinyl LP pressing. Originally released in 1962, Takin' Off marked Herbie Hancock's debut as a leader, showcasing his balance of sophistication and accessibility. While influenced by Horace Silver's hard bop, Hancock's style was lighter, more cerebral, and adventurous in it's harmonies. The album includes the iconic "Watermelon Man," which became a jazz standard after it's hit cover by Mongo Santamaria. Other highlights include the introspective "Alone and I," the minor-key "The Maze," and the bluesy "Empty Pockets." Backed by Freddie Hubbard, Dexter Gordon, Butch Warren, and Billy Higgins, this debut laid the foundation for Hancock's future innovations in jazz.

Tracklist:

  1. Watermelon Man
  2. Three Bags Full
  3. Empty Pockets
  4. Maze
  5. Driftin'
  6. Alone And I

This by far is one of the premier skate shops online. The selection and customer service is second to none. I have ordered multiple times and am never disappointed. They take care in packaging and making sure you are satisfied with your order.

After buying fake bones bearings off eBay from a different seller a long time ago I was skeptical on buying any more bearings online but I wanted to give eBay another chance and give this company a try. Shipping was fast and the bearings I received were definitely real this time. Definitely would shop online here again in the future.
