Centered around some soundtrack music that Herbie Hancock wrote for Bill Cosbys Fat Albert cartoon show, Fat Albert Rotunda was Hancocks first full-fledged venture into jazz-funk and his last until Head Hunters making it a prophetic release. At the same time, it was far different in sound from his later funk ventures, concentrating on a romping, late-60s-vintage R&B-oriented sound. with frequent horn riffs and great rhythmic comping and complex solos from Hancocks Fender Rhodes electric piano.
