You got to love Hancock. A wonderful musician and still he was genuinely laughing at the idea that was Miles the one privileged for working with him. So humble.
Herbie Hancock is a genius. I know that sounds like the understatement of all time but Jay Z and many pop artists were inspired by him. If you study jazz piano you have to study him. And many of his compositions, like Watermelon Man, Chameleon, Rockit, Maiden Voyage, to name a few, were innovative and showed many musicians the path. If you influence, many artists who play your instrument, you are special. If you influence artist play every instrument that’s even more special and then if you can do that while reaching an audience of non-musicians that’s even more special.
