Trifecta. One of the coolest comedians ever, one of the coolest musicians ever, bonding over one of the coolest cars ever. Sure doesn't get any better.
What a great guy is Herbie Hancock! He has been married to the same woman since 1968 (Herbie seems to be in things, like marriage and car ownership, for the long haul!), he holds degrees in music AND electrical engineering, has been an innovator in music from the early days of his career, looks about half his age and seems like a thoroughly nice man.
Whats neat about this story , is the amount of miles Herbie put on the car over the years. He was driving around with a 2 million dollar lottery ticket and it's in very nice shape ... original owner....what a story !
guy could afford a fairlight cmi,which i heard were going for as high as $100,000 back in the early 80's,,can imagine there was no need for him to sell it
I had opportunity meet Herbie & Gigi's one evening in the 1990s...he found out I was working for Shelby and we spend a few minutes talking Cobras. Totally cool, unassuming guy...both fantastic kind human beings...and yes, he gets the car thing. I believe Gigi called it that "little snake car in the garage"..;-)) Thanks Jay. I hadn't thought about this in ages. Great interview.
23 years old!!!! Probably the best automotive story ever. Has to be one of his most memorable time in history Now its worth millions apart from the famous owner history
Now after Chick has passed away we still have the great Herbie. Maiden Voiage is among the best records ever made. Herbie please stay with us for a hundred more years.
I got to meet Herbie one day back in 2006 traveling to South America. Couldn't believe it was him, at an airport in Rio, Brazil, in baggage claim, noone one around, just him and one other guy. He was the nicest, laid back, most humble musician ever. Had a great conversation with him. Was a huge fan of his, especially his work Head Hunters..such a chance meeting. Never forgot it!
Two guys here with overwhelming evidence that age doesn't have to impede creativity, enthusiasm, knowledge and many other attributes; respect to both of you.
More cool in this video than in a Canadian winter. The story of Herbie and Miles drag racing had me laughing out loud. "You gotta get rid of that car, it's dangerous."
That's got to be the longest continuous Cobra ownership of all time. And, he's driven it over 200,000 miles. That's gotta be a record, too. Thank you, Mr. Hancock. Well done, sir.
Very fitting for the coolest musician Herbie Hancock having one of the coolest cars. I always love hearing Miles Davis stories stories as told by the alumni themselves.
Curtis Mayfield had one. Took it to the shop to get it repaired. Didn’t wanna pay the storage fee required. The shop kept the car. Curtis didnt care SMH
That original ac shares styling cues with mg’s and jags of the day. They later took on the beefier persona with which most folks are familiar. Good on herbie for maintaining the original as is.
The Cobra has always been one of my favorite cars. Herbie's is so understated. No racing stripe, roll bar, minimum chrome. No massive, obnoxiously loud engine. Different. Beautiful !!!
One of my favorite car stories so far. I earned my 1st car sand blasting an MG that looked just like that but had a different grill. My dad built a box of plywood around the car and made me climb in with a sandblaster and I did a great job. I got stuff in my eyes and it sucked lol. But it was my neighbors car and that's how I earned my 1st car and it was cool to help make his car restored. It took a few years like 7 but in the end it was like a new car. Jack you owe me a ride at least lol. He was the best neighbor ever. It moved away but still have very fond memories of what we created in our backyards.
I had kind of the same experience. Went to a car dealer with my daughter and my shorts and flip flop on and the salesman didn't grace me even with a look of attention. He was too busy with an apparently older and more acquainted customer. After 15 minutes of not even "Hello sir, I'll be right at you" I left the dealership, went to another, bought a 65K car and was sure to let the initial seller know what the result of their salesmanship was. Roughly a year later they were out of business.
Nice! As a teenager, growing up in the 1980's, I can never forget Herbie Hancock, Rockit and Hancock's performance of Rockit at the 1984 Grammy Awards. The 1980's. Great times! Glad to see Herbie's doing well and is still active in music.
Wow, a blast from the past. I have been listening to Herbie since the early seventies when I discovered Jazz. What a legend and he still looks so young! Herbie Hancock and an original Shelby Cobra...two all-time classics! What a treat. Thanks Jay!
Jay, I really appreciate all your content in your channel and follow it. Fantastic cars. Such a joy to watch. But meeting Herbie Hancock - and himself in this car - made it extra an exceptional experience. I LOVE Herbies music. He is a true - once appearing in thousand years - genius. One of the very last great Jazz musicians of the true beginning of modern jazz (after Miles, Chick and Al, Lyle and others passed by). Now you made the bridge between sportscars and Jazz - really something!! Also with the short shots of Miles and his Miura and his Dino. Thank you for this contribution!!
"Herbie goes Bananas" .. .. should have been a completely different movie. Legendary jazz musician, surrounded by cool .. his entire lifetime. Buys a legendary car built by the man surrounded by cool his entire lifetime. Best part if this IS both Herbie and that Cobra .. their legends lie with each other.
Ive always preferred the slabside to the SC monsters. So much horsepower. If I ever become hillbilly rich a Superformance slabside is on my buy list. British racing green with the dark tan interior. This one looks cool in white tho. And it does my heart good that Herbie Hancock owns it.
Love this guy and his music. Can you imagine blasting down the road in an original Cobra with HH and having his album Future Shock blasting in the background! That would certainly be on my bucket list!
@@stilianstoev8443 weeeell, that's not exactly true. in his book, he discusses his addiction to crack cocaine (of all things) during the early to mid 90s. he's been clean for a long time though.
Back in the day, Cobras used to tour Ford dealerships. I recall the excitement when one arrived at my local dealer. My Dad and I made a special trip to take a look. I was given chamois so I could touch it without leaving fingerprints. A happy memory and a highlight of my early teens. 🙂
Haha, I read Herbie's biography Possibilities, I think he said in that he was think of buying something practical, like a station wagon but his friend told him about the Cobra. I can image the Cobra has its downsides at first, especially in the winter!
I would never have imagined that the great Herbie Hancock could get any cooler until seeing him in his cobra. Wow I've listened to his music since I was a kid and I never knew he owned a Cobra. Herbie in a Cobra is just too cool for words love it !
I was 7 years old when “Rockit” was on MTV, my parents didn’t understand it, but it was one of my favorites. I’m not proud to admit that I thought Herbie was a one hit wonder, clearly I was wrong, I’m gonna check out more of his music.
Haha wow...a true American icon, globally-renowned. The word "legendary" can't even begin to describe this man's artistry and body of work. I wish I could hear all that stuff for the first time again! But I listen to him ALL the time anyway and it never gets old. And I haven't even heard "Rockit" in years!
"Get rid of it... Because it's dangerous!" Man this was incredible!! I had no idea that Herbie Hancock had a Cobra or even loved fast cars!! That Miles Davis story had me grinning from ear to ear :-) For years when I heard his name, all I could think of was "Rock It". Now I'll think about this video :-)
I missed seeing Herbie in Cork by a day. The box office lady said it was the best show she had ever seen. He played over two hours extra because he and the band and the audience were having such a great time. Did get front row tickets to see Omar Sosa though. His performance was the best I have ever seen.
I am so happy to see two of my heroes collaborate. Herbie is a stand up guy and truly a treasure for the world to enjoy. I hope he lives out a long happy life and that jazz is kept alive by his inspiration, as it does for me. Keep the music alive friends. Thanks again for sharing this, Jay. Stay cool.
Hey, maaan! This is already an video and yet it is my first time seeing it. This to me is the coolest thing I ever seen on any TH-cam or internet channel. Two of the coolest human beings on earth! A legendary comedian and talk-show host, and a legendary jazz, pop, and r&b song writer, producer, Oscar and multi- Grammy winning musical genius!!, riding around in a classic '63 AC Cobra! Just simply too damned cool!
I couldn’t even believe this video in my timeline lol. He reminds me of an old buddy, so cool and humble. 200k on a Shelby, was his daily driver, and wifey still doesn’t get it! 🤣 Also didn’t know Miles was such a car guy, great story. Thanks Jay, feel like I just met Herbie Hancock and had a beer with him! 🎼🎹
What a fantastic person. We are so lucky that he has been the caretaker of it. and what a person who fame and fortune dose not seem to be currupted (spellcheck could not figure out the word, LOL,) by his fame. the car could have easily been sold or cast aside in favor of something new. thanks for sharing this moment...Fantastic!
I came to jazz late, oh sure I heard and saw all the greats before but when Herbie hit middle America in the 80's, his was the first jazz album I bought. Being a car guy is just icing on his cool cake baby!
Only Jay Vid I've Seen Where He Didn't Drive. Except the Hemi Under Glass one where Bob Riggle rolls it. Sorry Herbie, Love ya man, but that is the most under powered Cobra ever made. Nice it's still worth so much. Peace Man ✌️😎👍
Herbie Hancock is a living American history book. Im in Awe.
with a cobra
They both are icons I love listening to his old Headhunter stuff I appreciate Jay more now than I ever did when he was on TV
Miles is the one
Right...
He looks so good . He and his music don't age ...
Eighty years old and still driving, and still playing. God bless you, Herbie Hancock!
I hope to look this good and be this energetic when I'm 40
Black don't crack!
I can't believe he's 80!
He looks like he's 40.
What a great video this was.
Thank you Jay and Herbie.
Jazz keeps ya young,!
I was watching the whole thing thinking this cant be the guy. He looks way too young.
That's what is called "living right"
Amen! He looks fantastic! Great car, and video. God bless them both.
Literally the exact thing I said down to the ages and I scrolled down to see if anyone thought the same haha
Trifecta. One of the coolest comedians ever, one of the coolest musicians ever, bonding over one of the coolest cars ever. Sure doesn't get any better.
Ok, drag racing Miles Davis. Coolest and most amazing anecdote.
Thats what I thought
Agreed
And beating miles Davis's ferrari.
The parting Miles' quote is brilliant. Herbie brought a twinge of jealousy out of him
Imagine driving around LA and you see Herbie Hancock and Jay Leno casually driving around in a 63 Cobra...my head would explode!
😂😂
What a great guy is Herbie Hancock! He has been married to the same woman since 1968 (Herbie seems to be in things, like marriage and car ownership, for the long haul!), he holds degrees in music AND electrical engineering, has been an innovator in music from the early days of his career, looks about half his age and seems like a thoroughly nice man.

I love it, thats what car are for, to be driven not to be coveted like immortal deities. Enjoy them........
guy could afford a fairlight cmi,which i heard were going for as high as $100,000 back in the early 80's,,can imagine there was no need for him to sell it
@@gsprings43 I had to look that up (and I’m a long-time electronic music fan). Thanks! ; )
@@jayhache5609 might want to look up (new england digital's synclavier) too
I had opportunity meet Herbie & Gigi's one evening in the 1990s...he found out I was working for Shelby and we spend a few minutes talking Cobras. Totally cool, unassuming guy...both fantastic kind human beings...and yes, he gets the car thing. I believe Gigi called it that "little snake car in the garage"..;-)) Thanks Jay. I hadn't thought about this in ages. Great interview.
Gigi's German... Straight to the point!
23 years old!!!! Probably the best automotive story ever. Has to be one of his most memorable time in history
Now its worth millions apart from the famous owner history
I wonder how much the provenance adds to the value of the car.
@@brucecaldwell6701 Oooh, very much Bruce, very, very much dough ! Look at Steve McQueens cars !
@@brucecaldwell6701 "This car won its first ever street race - against Miles Davis in a Maserati!" Pretty good start to the sales brochure.
@@SirVic42 I'm glad he has kept it all these years. To me, it's storied history is priceless.
The life long owner story is worth a million on top of the car value
Now after Chick has passed away we still have the great Herbie. Maiden Voiage is among the best records ever made. Herbie please stay with us for a hundred more years.
I got to meet Herbie one day back in 2006 traveling to South America. Couldn't believe it was him, at an airport in Rio, Brazil, in baggage claim, noone one around, just him and one other guy. He was the nicest, laid back, most humble musician ever. Had a great conversation with him. Was a huge fan of his, especially his work Head Hunters..such a chance meeting. Never forgot it!
The Cobra has stayed in good shape due to the aura of cool emanating from Herbie Hancock when he drove it.
Today “celebrities” try to be cool. Back in the day they were cool. Just being themselves ,people like Mr. Hancock, are the essence of cool.
Yes, cool without trying - the actual definition of cool
Born Cool
EXACTLY
That was the "birth of cool". Now cool is demented and senile..
naw ....Herbie Hancock...will always be the epitome of Cool!
RockIT!
You just can’t hate Herbie Hancock, such a likable dude🙏🏼😎
wow he is 80, looks great.
He looks good for 50
Black don’t crack & jazz keeps ya young!
@@jimmybuffet4970 well said!
Wow! I am shocked, he look so young I did not compute the time.
🥁I Agree!🎸
That has to be the best Jay Leno film ever!
No doubt
I've see Jay driving around LA in all types if cars....but to see him with Herbie! my god!
IKR
Two guys here with overwhelming evidence that age doesn't have to impede creativity, enthusiasm, knowledge and many other attributes; respect to both of you.
I would love to have seen that salesman's face when he came back with the cash. Thanks Jay and Herbie. Great story!
More cool in this video than in a Canadian winter. The story of Herbie and Miles drag racing had me laughing out loud. "You gotta get rid of that car, it's dangerous."
✔️ Indeed.! !!
I met Herbie once. He was so delightful and real. Love him.
The musician or the VW? 😊
@@peterrenn6341 Crisp! (the person)
"And I had enough time to pull out a cigarette and light it before Miles caught up"...
There ain't many cooler sentences a man can say
Miles. "Get rid of it."
That was really, the essence of cool.
OMG, riding with HERBIE in a 260 (HIS ORIGINAL 260!!) Cobra... Can't believe that. Wow. Thank you, Jay Leno, for this video.
Respect the fact that the owner drives the car
With over 200,000 miles! Mad respect!!!!
That's got to be the longest continuous Cobra ownership of all time. And, he's driven it over 200,000 miles. That's gotta be a record, too.
Thank you, Mr. Hancock.
Well done, sir.
Mr Hancock is the longest continuously owned Cobra owner in the world. Cool fact: The car is still DC positive!
At 200,000 miles Consumer Reports should rate it high for durability
WOW! Herbie Hancock! The Cobra has a heartbeat! The Tesla has a “Hum!”
What a great story, it is so cool that it was Herbie's first new car he bought, and still owns to this day. I would never sell it.
Herbie is a true legend
So cool . Original owner and the only Original 1st owner of a Cobra
Very fitting for the coolest musician Herbie Hancock having one of the coolest cars. I always love hearing Miles Davis stories stories as told by the alumni themselves.
Herbie not only has impeccable taste in music, but in cars too. Love this guy's music.
The car is art. And Herbie makes art. He's sprinkled in throughout my collection. Miles to Thundercat, he has worked with all the greats.
Curtis Mayfield had one. Took it to the shop to get it repaired. Didn’t wanna pay the storage fee required. The shop kept the car. Curtis didnt care SMH
Sign your John Hancock right there.
"It's Herbie Hancock"
Chris Farley
My brother and I were listening and studying Herbie in the early years of our lives..what an outstanding Jazz giant he is. VSOP forever my brother.
That original ac shares styling cues with mg’s and jags of the day. They later took on the beefier persona with which most folks are familiar. Good on herbie for maintaining the original as is.
You know, of course that the chassis and body are actually English - perhaps that’s why. Shelby shoved a big American V8 into them.
@@johncanalese588 Absolutely. I grew up in the 60’s so I have a warm spot for this era.
I've seen Herbie play many times, but I had no idea of his love for this Cobra. Made my day Jay.
I wish I were a friend of Herbie Hancock. He appears to be a truly wonderful person. Oh, and I really like his music too!
The Cobra has always been one of my favorite cars. Herbie's is so understated. No racing stripe, roll bar, minimum chrome. No massive, obnoxiously loud engine. Different. Beautiful !!!

What a ride around the block !
Don’t think it could of been any better in any area 👍🏻
Herbie looks like Denzel Washington.Denzel should do a Herbie life story movie.
Good Ideal.
Yes he should!
He talks like Denzel!
He’s the oldest, so one would say, Denzel looks and/or talks like him.
I second that 👍👍
Watermelon Man is a legendary hit no wonder it bought him a Cobra.

Herbie is such a gentleman. Such a great interview
Jay and Herbie, thank you. First I am so happy someone kept and preserved an original 260 Cobra. Beautiful car, don’t change it Herbie it is a beauty.
CNBC Lawyer Squad: No, Jay, you can’t drive this one.
Just like when Doug reviewed jays Mclaren F1😳............Jay: uhhhhhhh, I’ll drive doug! 😆😆🤷🏽♂️
😂😂😂
Jay, don't scratch the paint with the rivets on your denim farmhand outfit. 🤣🤣🤣
"Herbie goes Bananas" .. .. should have been a completely different movie.
Legendary jazz musician, surrounded by cool .. his entire lifetime. Buys a legendary car built by the man surrounded by cool his entire lifetime.
Best part if this IS both Herbie and that Cobra .. their legends lie with each other.

Mad love to Mr Hancock. So many smiles.
that is the coolest, I really cant imagine anything cooler- Herbie and Jay in and AC / Cobra originals all the way around...that's class.
Man Herbie seems like one of the most Humblest cats ever! I enjoyed this!
This is awesome. Two great friends just shooting the breeze, top down, in the coolest of cool cars!
Herbie is cooler than the car. So glad I seen this
Love this guy and his music. Can you imagine blasting down the road in an original Cobra with HH and having his album Future Shock blasting in the background! That would certainly be on my bucket list!
Okay wait a second. When is Denzel going to make a movie based on Herbie’s life?
Hey, this is a great idea, brother, I think it won't sell though. Herbie was always a good family man, nothing scandalous... No scandal, no profit..
No kidding, they could be brothers...
Good idea!
@@stilianstoev8443 He hug with Miles a heroine user. He may have dabbled, idk.
@@stilianstoev8443 weeeell, that's not exactly true. in his book, he discusses his addiction to crack cocaine (of all things) during the early to mid 90s. he's been clean for a long time though.
Glad to see that some of the money I spent on Watermelon Man was put to good use.
This is one of the best ones Jay has done. Legendary musician and car guy HH.
Amazing, two great legends in a legendary car, so cool ❤️
Back in the day, Cobras used to tour Ford dealerships. I recall the excitement when one arrived at my local dealer. My Dad and I made a special trip to take a look. I was given chamois so I could touch it without leaving fingerprints. A happy memory and a highlight of my early teens. 🙂
I think this is the best Jay Leno's garage ever! I had to make sure that I have Herbie and Myles on my Pandora music list
I’d bet he’s not only the longest owner of a Cobra, he’s probably got the highest mileage Cobra too
Yup
Still worth $2,000,000.00.
This is probably the one case where the mileage will increase the value
A real rare 260 cubic inch 2 barrel carburetor version. Also with the antiquated worm and sector steering.
Haha, I read Herbie's biography Possibilities, I think he said in that he was think of buying something practical, like a station wagon but his friend told him about the Cobra. I can image the Cobra has its downsides at first, especially in the winter!
Incredible, 3 absolutely epic performers in one short video
Amazing moments in the History of American entertainment,
Thank you
This is one of my favorite videos by Jay...thanks, Jay !!!
I would never have imagined that the great Herbie Hancock could get any cooler until seeing him in his cobra. Wow I've listened to his music since I was a kid and I never knew he owned a Cobra. Herbie in a Cobra is just too cool for words love it !
Great Car... Great Story... Great Couple of Ol' Gearheads. Thanks for Sharing
It doesn't get more epic than this......thank you Jay, thank you Herbie.
Thank you for this video with Herbie!!! I own his HERBIES 1971 Mercedes 280 SEL
great video. Reminds me of the Honey West Cobra from the TV show. My favorite Cobra(s).
This is SO cool in SO many different ways! Huge thanks!
I was 7 years old when “Rockit” was on MTV, my parents didn’t understand it, but it was one of my favorites. I’m not proud to admit that I thought Herbie was a one hit wonder, clearly I was wrong, I’m gonna check out more of his music.
Haha wow...a true American icon, globally-renowned. The word "legendary" can't even begin to describe this man's artistry and body of work. I wish I could hear all that stuff for the first time again! But I listen to him ALL the time anyway and it never gets old. And I haven't even heard "Rockit" in years!
Amazing car, amazing owner and great story - doesn't get any better than this.
Jay opened for Herbie - People don't realize that there is such a thing as a get rich quick scheme - It's called working passionately for 30 + years.
That was cool.
LOL nope, It's called THE GRIND or THE HUSTLE now. But young people see it as several years rather than decades until they reach success.
Had a smile on my face the whole time! Great vid!
Awesome Jay! Thanks for giving us an insight to another side of Mr Hancock that we didn't know.
"Get rid of it... Because it's dangerous!" Man this was incredible!! I had no idea that Herbie Hancock had a Cobra or even loved fast cars!! That Miles Davis story had me grinning from ear to ear :-) For years when I heard his name, all I could think of was "Rock It". Now I'll think about this video :-)
Sounds just like Miles. One of the coolest ever.
I missed seeing Herbie in Cork by a day. The box office lady said it was the best show she had ever seen. He played over two hours extra because he and the band and the audience were having such a great time.
Did get front row tickets to see Omar Sosa though. His performance was the best I have ever seen.
If you put that car on the auction block, with the name associated with it, $2M would be the opening bid.
Fantastic video.
Three legends in one shot, doesn't get better than that !
It"s great to know that some cars appreciate! Go Herbie and Jay! Thank you for this!
Legendary American car. Legendary American musician. Now that's a winner!!!
I am so happy to see two of my heroes collaborate. Herbie is a stand up guy and truly a treasure for the world to enjoy. I hope he lives out a long happy life and that jazz is kept alive by his inspiration, as it does for me. Keep the music alive friends. Thanks again for sharing this, Jay. Stay cool.
Herbie fantastic car and stories. I had no idea you are a car guy. All the best, keep the great ride going.
Hey, maaan! This is already an video and yet it is my first time seeing it. This to me is the coolest thing I ever seen on any TH-cam or internet channel. Two of the coolest human beings on earth! A legendary comedian and talk-show host, and a legendary jazz, pop, and r&b song writer, producer, Oscar and multi- Grammy winning musical genius!!, riding around in a classic '63 AC Cobra! Just simply too damned cool!
Shelby #6, there's another newer video of it in storage at his mechanic friends place, it's going to his grandson when he turns 16.
No words. Both American Gems. Jay is one as well, because he gives us entré into that world.
That is such a great story! Thank you for sharing it! Just kept saying how cool is that....
Only Mr. Hancock can say. . I'm gonna go downtown to the Disney music hall and practice playing the piano today. .
