Herbie Hancock - Eye of the Hurricane

This past semester I've been focused on studying and transcribing the music of Herbie Hancock. Though I'd checked out Herbie in the past, I wanted to make his playing a major focusn and dig into his signature sound.  To kick things off, here's Herbie's composition "Eye of the Hurrican" from his classic record Maiden Voyage (1965).  An interesting aspect to listen for on the original recording is the loose treatment of the rhythm at the end of the head.
