		Herbie Hancock's body of excellent work is vast but this 1996 CD is one of his more interesting latter day recordings.
		The idea of making jazz versions of pop tunes is not new of course but while other so-called jazz musicians have just remade the originals of their choice, lazily replacing the vocal phrases with their instruments, Hancock has done the job the way it's supposed to be done.
		I particularly love the way Hancock would phrase the end of a solo, only to have that phrase echoed by Scofield at the beginning of his.
