The Best Of Herbie Highlighted by the bombastic drumming of Mike Clark (who knew a white boy could groove THAT hard) "Palm Grease" features Herbie's now trademark Rhodes and Clavanet. "Thrust" is the ultimate statement by the Headhunters, and ranks as Herbie Hancocks best and funkiest album. Yet, "Thrust" features a dominating arsenal of ARP synthesizer's that add awe-inspiring textures to all four tunes. Throughout "Palm Grease"'s 10 minutes Herbie and Bennie Maupin shoot fire over Paul Jackson and Mike Clark's endless groove. "Actual Proof" features Maupin on Flute, and showcases one of Herbie longest electric piano solo's. The melody of this tune is also unforgetable. "Butterfly" is where things get REAL good. This eleven minute groove features some of the best Sax, Rhodes, and Synth playing ever but of vinyl. If you bought the album for one song, this would be the one. Side two was rounded out by "Spank-A-Lee", a the funkiest number, purely influenced by Sly. This album is more than a worthy follow up to "Headhunters", and it's follow-up "Man-Child" is worthy as well. .
