But the "Blow Up" movie dates back to the sixties right? This predates
Herbie's Headhunters phase... back then he was doing solo projects using an
acoustic sextet with a warm sound. The VSOP concert album showed this
evolution... from the Miles Quintet to Herbie's acoustic sextet, to his
funky period in the 70's.
