Eddie Henderson (born October 26, 1940) is an American jazz trumpet and flugelhorn player. He came to prominence in the early 1970s as a member of pianist Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi band, going on to lead his own electric/fusion groups through the decade. Henderson earned his medical degree and worked a parallel career as a psychiatrist and musician, turning back to acoustic jazz by the 1990s.

Family influence and early music history

Henderson was born in New York City on October 26, 1940.[1] At the age of nine he was given an informal lesson by Louis Armstrong, and he continued to study the instrument as a teenager in San Francisco, where he grew up, after his family moved there in 1954, at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music.[1][2]

Henderson was influenced by the early fusion work of jazz musician Miles Davis, who was a friend of his parents.[2] They met in 1957 when Henderson was aged seventeen.[1]

After completing his medical education, Henderson went back to the Bay area for his medical internship and residency.[1] It was a week-long gig with Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi band that led to a three-year job, lasting from 1970 to 1973.[1] In addition to the three albums recorded by the group under Hancock's name, Henderson recorded his first two albums, Realization (1972) and Inside Out (1973), with Hancock and the Mwandishi group.[1]

After leaving Hancock, the trumpeter worked extensively with Pharoah Sanders, Mike Nock, Norman Connors, and Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers,[1] returning to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1975 where he joined the Latin-jazz group Azteca and fronted his own bands.[1] While he gained some recognition for his work with the Herbie Hancock Sextet (1970–1973), his own records were considered too "commercial".[3]

Medical career

After three years in the Air Force, Henderson enrolled at the University of California, Berkeley, graduating with a B.S. in zoology in 1964.[1] He then studied medicine at Howard University in Washington D.C., graduating in 1968.[1] Though he undertook his residency in psychiatry, he practiced general medicine.[4]

Personal life

Eddie Henderson is married to Natsuko Henderson. His daughter, Cava Menzies, is a musician and educator. Both his wife and daughter contribute compositions to his albums. [5]

UK success

Henderson's only UK hit was the single "Prance On" recorded for Capitol which reached No. 44 in the UK Singles Chart in November 1978.[6]
