Herbie Hancock's debut album "Takin' Off" was indeed the beginning of an unprecedented jazz career

At a young 22, the pianist did this brilliant recording at Rudy van Gelder's Blue Note studio, which persuaded Miles Davis to bring the talent into his second, legendary quintet

Hancock is accompanied by trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon, bassist Butch Warren and drummer Billy Higgins

His hardbop number "Watermelon Man" became a chart success
