Herbie Hancock - River The Joni Letters Expanded Edition
Review by Jihyun Kwon
The expanded edition of Herbie Hancock's album, "River: The Joni Letters," is a must-have for any jazz or Joni Mitchell fan. The album, which originally won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 2008, features Hancock's interpretations of some of Mitchell's most beloved songs.
The expanded edition includes two previously unreleased tracks, "A Case of You" and "All I Want," as well as live versions of "Edith and the Kingpin" and "The Jungle Line." The live versions add an extra layer of energy and excitement to the already impressive album.
Hancock's arrangements are masterful, showcasing his virtuosic piano playing and the talents of his band. The addition of guest vocalists such as Norah Jones, Tina Turner, and Leonard Cohen adds another dimension to the music, creating a beautiful blend of styles and voices.
