Speak Like a Child was the sixth album by American jazz pianist Herbie Hancock, recorded and released by Blue Note Records in 1968. Featuring Hancock’s arrangements for an unusual front line of alto flute, bass trombone and flugelhorn, the album was described by critic Nat Hentoff as an “impressive further stage in the evolution of Herbie Hancock as writer and player”, characterised by a “singular quality of incisive, searching lyricism.” (source: wikipedia)
