Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock arrived at a time when jazz was losing its place in the mainstream to pop and rock. The album broke new ground by putting groove at the centre — driven by deep funk bass lines, polyrhythmic drums, and Hancock’s pioneering use of electric keyboards and synthesizers — while keeping the spirit of improvisation alive. It introduced a fresh band, innovative approaches to composition, and a new dialogue between jazz and popular music. The result became the best-selling jazz album of its time and a record that reshaped what jazz could be, full of sounds and ideas that continue to inspire musicians today.
