O’s Notes: The Jazz Central is BET’s Jazz concert series in Washington, DC. Herbie Hancock took center stage during January 2001 and the session was released on DVD in 2003. The performance is riveting! Herbie (p) is joined by drummer Terri Lynn Carrington and several other top rate musicians. They play nine songs including “Canteloupe Island” and “Maiden Voyage”. This is a prime Hancock performance. There is also an excellent interview with Herbie discussing his Grammy winning album, Gershwin’s World.
