Herbie Hancock on the Grammys


Does anyone know the titles of the songs he played with orchestra on the grammys? He teamed up with another fine pianist in the duel set.

Great performance and I'm a fan of his work, however when you get record of the year for re-arrangements of old music...I don't know. I guess innovation and originality carry less weight.
Drubin - apparently I don't know what I'm talking about. It was 'album of the year' and not 'record of the year'. Mr. Hancock's recording of re-arranged material beat out ALL artists across ALL genres of music, regardless of innovation and originality. But hey, 43 years is a long run without a jazz winner - so that means there must have been too many mediocre jazz albums that have been released since 1965...ahhh the Grammy's! The same awards organization that gave Christopher Cross album of the year over Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' back in '81.
