A jam and a half, sah groovy

Chameleon is perfect walking-around-campus music

Other than this, I ain't a big fan of the early 70s Hancock

Gosh, this is really wonderful. Will have to check out some more of his stuff soon.

If you want straight jazz, check: Empyrean Isles and Maiden Voyage

Boredom: everything after Thrust.

I remember when I was like 17 or so I would hype myself up for parties with Chameleon, damn fun song
