Our Take

Wayne Shorter's Native Dancer is like a whimsical journey through a musical wonderland, where jazz meets Brazilian rhythms in a collision of sound that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. Shorter's saxophone prowess is on full display here, soaring and weaving through the intricate melodies with the precision of a virtuoso. Each note is a brush stroke on a vibrant canvas, creating a sonic landscape that is as rich as it is captivating. The album opens with the infectious groove of "Ponta de Areia," setting the tone for what is to come. Shorter's collaboration with Brazilian mastermind Milton Nascimento is nothing short of genius, as their voices blend seamlessly to create a harmonious blend of cultures and musical styles. Tracks like "Miracle of the Fishes" and "Beauty and the Beast" showcase Shorter's ability to create music that is both complex and accessible, drawing you in with its sheer beauty and charm. It's like being whisked away on a magical carpet ride, where the only destination is pure musical bliss. Native Dancer is a true masterpiece, a testament to Shorter's boundless creativity and talent. It's a joy to listen to, a celebration of life and music that will leave you wanting more. So sit back, relax, and let Wayne Shorter take you on a musical journey unlike any other. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Wayne Shorter

Wayne Shorter is the kind of jazz legend that makes you want to grab a saxophone and honk along with him, even if you've never picked up the instrument before. The man is an absolute powerhouse on the horn, with a resume that reads like a who's who of musical greatness. Shorter has been making waves in the music industry since the 1950s, when he first gained notoriety as a member of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. From there, he went on to become a key player in the iconic Miles Davis Quintet, where his compositions helped shape the future of jazz. But Shorter didn't stop there. In the 1970s, he co-founded the groundbreaking fusion band Weather Report, pushing the boundaries of what jazz could be with his innovative compositions and fearless improvisation. Since then, he has continued to wow audiences around the world with his unique blend of tradition and innovation. With a career spanning over six decades and multiple Grammy Awards to his name, Shorter shows no signs of slowing down. His latest album, "Emanon," released in 2018, is a testament to his enduring talent and creativity. If you're looking for music that will challenge your ears and inspire your soul, look no further than the one and only Wayne Shorter. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
