In a week that saw the release of Herbie Hancock's latest album, "The Imagine Project," the jazz legend took to the stage at Carnegie Hall in New York to perform the East Coast half of his 70th birthday celebration.
The West Coast party, framed at the other end of his current tour itinerary, will take place in September at the Hollywood Bowl.
On Thursday night (6/24) with Bill Cosby in the role of Master of Ceremonies, Hancock was joined by an all-star cast that included Terence Blanchard, Ron Carter, Jack DeJohnette, Dave Holland, Wayne Shorter, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi. SoundSpike's Chris Owyoung was there and some of the highlights of the night are shown below.
