2020 studio album by Lionel Loueke

HH is a studio album by Beninese guitarist Lionel Loueke.[4] Edition released the album on 16 October 2020.

The record contains 14 tracks: 12 written by Loueke’s mentor Herbie Hancock and two by Loueke himself.

Ian Patterson of All About Jazz wrote: “Homage to jazz greats is part of the idiom’s codified language, but with this primarily acoustic set Loueke pays tribute in a way that Hancock would surely appreciate, by building on what has gone before. From lyricism of caressing tenderness, and danceable African funk to contemporary soundscapes, HH translates Hancock’s music into a singular, engrossing hybrid that could only hail from LL.”[1]

All tracks are written by Herbie Hancock except track 10 and 13 written by Loueke.
