With his vast understanding of harmony and rhythm he created many popular compositions as well as unforgettable solos not only in his own projects, but also as a sideman in countless albums. His visionary approach to jazz and his eagerness and ease to crossover various genres made him one of the pioneers of fusion. In his long musical career he never fitted any cliche, always open to new directions and musical experimentation. Some of his projects were acknowledged as musical innovations years later after their release, as he’s always been ahead of his time. (remember Rockit) “My main work is to grow and expand…” says Hancock. And so did everyone witnessing his matchless career that opened up their perspective to jazz. We can hardly wait for his next project.
