Directstep is a bit of unearthed treasure that provides a better scope at Hancock’s artistic trajectory and range from a highly creative period during his illustrious career. It goes without saying that Hancock is synonymous with musical ingenuity; however, Directstep gives a deeper look at the innovation of his writing and performance from a brief period that, with the exception of Japan and jazz collectors who search out and covet such rarities, was generally hidden from his legacy. Directstep is a record driven largely by pulses and grooves of funk, soul, disco, and pop of ’79, but applies a rich level of jazz sensibilities and improvisation in a manner that only Hancock could do.
