| Sextant is the thirteenth album and the last album with the Mwandishi Band, formed by Herbie Hancock.
Released in 1972, Sextant was Herbie Hancock's first album on Columbia Records. It was, and remains extremely complex, and a harmonically and rhythmically challenging musical statement. Hancock was no stranger to electronic music, having used synthesisers extensively during his short time on Warner Brothers, but Sextant took his sound to a new level, and arguably pushed the boundaries of the growing jazz-fusion movement further than any of his contemporaries. Sextant was by far the furthest Herbie Hancock ever pushed himself musically. While a select few were collectively wowed by his new approach, Hancock alienated the bulk of his audience, who found his sound extremely inaccessible. Made up of just three tracks, the album recalls many of Hancock's critically acclaimed Blue Note recordings, but also points toward the commercial success he would enjoy in the 80s with Future Shock and Sound-System, among others. However, with Sextant, commercial success would have seemed a long way away. Ironically, Hancock's first recording on Columbia would be his last recording with his Mwandishi group, with Sextant's poor album sales forcing him into the mainstream. What followed was the popular Head Hunters, but today's jazz world is only just catching up with what The Mwandishi recordings achieved. Track listing 1. "Rain Dance" - 9:16 2.
