Urreur

I have a copy with blue/white Liberty labels with 'VAN GELDER' in dead wax, but 'Microgroove' labels with mono number (BLP 4175). Engravings in runout also read BLP 4175. It has the first issue jacket with '43 West 61st St.' and 4175 in blocks on back.

Mejora

Here with "Cantaloupe Island", like "Blind Man, Blind Man" and "Watermelon man" before it, Hancock's shows his funky side, the record also has elements of hard-bop, and more experimental sounds. It's an interesting release but because he is exploring so many sounds the album sounds like a collection of recordings put together than an album that really flows in one style.

Berkohi

Empyrean Isles is the best of Hancock's Blue Note albums and an outstanding example of modal jazz. But beyond that, it's simply one of the finest pure jazz albums ever made, right up there with Kind of Blue and Love Supreme. What helps makes it so great is not just the phenomenal musicians and the flawless performance, but a composer/arranger (Hancock) who really has no equal in the jazz world.The 1950s were about forming the groundwork for jazz. Its maturation came in the post-bop 1960s, and this album was conceived at arguably the very peak of that movement. My favourites here are the "Oliloqui Valley" and the immortal "Cantaloupe Island."
