Back in the mid-'70s, Herbie Hancock's Headhunters were making some of the funkiest fusion around. The band (like Weather Report and Return to Forever) was a prime exponent of post-Miles Davis electric jazz. Now, two decades after the fact, the original Headhunters are back. While Hancock is only a "special guest" on this recording, saxophonist Bennie Maupin, percussionist Bill Summers, bassist Paul Jackson, and drummer Mike Clark keep their jazz-fusion flame burning brightly. Besides one contemporary rap tune and two soulful vocals by N'Dea Davenport, this music displays much of the band's original excitement and experimental nature. With veteran pianist Billy Childs subbing for Hancock on half the tunes, The Headhunters still achieve a consistent and creative sound. --Mitch Myers
Review
Picking up the ball they dropped [in the '70s] the Headhunters pitch ten off-speed breaking balls of funkdafied jazz heat. Save for the too-Old School tracks "Funk Hunter" and "Skank It" ... Return of the Headhunters dazzles. -- Jazz Times
The long-awaited reunion disc by keyboard maestro Herbie Hancock's seminal electro-jazz band, the Headhunters, is a delicious feast of jazz-funk-R&B fusion. -- Vibe, ISBN13: B000009DGF ISBN10: B000009DGF Material Type: audioCD
