One of the great Herbie Hancock tunes. In this 50 minute lesson, I take a detailed look at each segment of the harmony. This is a great chance to work on your modal playing as there isn't much in the way of traditional ii-V language. I discuss derived pentatonics, major triads from the diminished scale and much more. 12 pages of fully transcribed examples are included in this lesson.
