    Love this tune! But unfortunately, someone messed up the track title. This is actually "Maiden Voyage," not "Dolphin Dance."

    1972 in the USAF, took a hit of orange acid and listened to this tune all night. Man the sounds I heard! 2009, thirty-seven years older, not acid and I still hear extraordinary, beautiful sounds from this tune. God Bless you Mr. Hancock!

    im still trying to grasp how its possible to write such clever and complex modal changes yet such a perfect melody

    Hmm. Someone has scrobbled the track "Maiden Voyage" as "Dolphin Dance". :-(
