'Fat Albert Rotunda' is the venture into jazz-funk by keyboardist Herbie Hancock. The record is centered around the music Hancock wrote for the 'Fat Albert' cartoon show. It's one of the records which appeared in the period between his landmark album 'Maiden Voyage' of 1965 and his 1973 classic 'Head Hunters'. 'Fat Albert Rotunda' is a unique item in Herbie Hancock's long and diverse catalog, with funky tracks like 'Fat Mama' and modern jazz-oriented tunes like 'Tell Me A Bedtime Story'. The sextet which is backing Hancock consists of some of the most prominent musicians of that time, like Joe Henderson on tenor sax, Johnny Coles on trumpet and Buster Williams on the bass. Comes on 180 gram vinyl.
Also available: FAT ALBERT ROTUNDA (USA) (LP).
