Herbie Hancock best recordings


Hey HH fans, I'm looking for his best recordings and in particular if there is a worthwhile best of that qualifies as excellent. I'm looking for a somewhat wide soundstage in a fairly intimate live setting - not really any studio stuff unless it's incredibly well done which wouldn't surprise me.

Educate me on the topic of Herbie if you feel so inclined. I've been a fan of his for 35 years, but have sworn off throwing $$ at great recordings and audio equipment until now. Would love to fill my apt with his excellent sounds.

No need to contribute mentions of other artists unless HH is involved. I already have great recordings of many others.

Thanks!!

All these suggestions kick butt. Outstanding suggestions all. And Viridian, I love vocals and in particuar Norah's.

Thank You!

The River is a wonderful album. I'm not a big fan of Norah Jones. But her contributions here are fantastic. You won't regret it.
A few others I don't see mentioned:
1) Herbie Hancock & Chick Corea in Concert.Recorded during 1978 tour at various venues. Very well recorded.
2) HH & Wayne Shorter 1+1. Piano and soprano sax.
3) Headhunters- Funky period.
Lot of difference between Maiden Voyage and Headhunters. Although I enjoyed Headhunters, the earlier stuff appealed to me more. Maiden Voyage and albums made right after sounded much more like jazz to me, Headhunters not so much.
