tour in the summer of 1973 produced the recordings that were released as
"Mama Kuku". More tours followed, the last (together with Jeremy Steig)
being a big tour in Asia and Northern Africa which was promoted by the
Goethe-Institut, Germany’s cultural institute.

Herbie Hancock - Feets Don't Fail Me Now (1979) [2015/FLAC]
Herbie Hancock's electric records up until this point were marked by intelligence and adventure, even at their most earthy. But no, this one doesn't have an ounce of either. Herbie falls hook, line and sinker for the disco fad and submerges his personality underneath the plastic vocals and four-on-the-floor disco beat. Hancock's own gauzy vocals through a Sennheiser vocoder are embarrassing, and even his synthesizer work sounds coarse and gimmicky. This time, even the purists were right; this is of no interest to jazz listeners and it isn't even good disco.

- Percussion – Bill Summers
