Flood (Herbie Hancock album)
Flood is the sixteenth and second live album by Herbie Hancock. It was originally released only in Japan in 1975 as a double LP, and features the Headhunters Band, performing selections from the albums Head Hunters, Thrust and Man-Child (the latter still two months away from release at the time of these concerts.) It remained a Japanese only release in all formats until a 2014 US CD reissue by Wounded Bird. The cover artwork was designed by Nobuyuki Nakanishi.[2]
