The debut of Herbie Hancock's visionary Mwandishi sextet. This album marks a radical departure from his post-bop work, diving deep into atmospheric, electric, and spiritual avant-garde jazz. The music is spacious and exploratory, emphasizing collective improvisation and texture, and stands as a key document of the adventurous, cosmic jazz of the early 1970s.
