Native Dancer
More Info
Despite ill-informed claims that Wayne Shorter 'dropped off' around this period of his career, the '70s were in fact a highly productive time for the jazz maestro.
"One of Shorter's best-selling albums from the '70s was Native Dancer, a Brazilian-oriented jazz-fusion masterpiece that boasts Herbie Hancock on acoustic piano and electric keyboards, and employs such Brazilian talent as singer Milton Nascimento (a superstar in Brazil) and percussionist Airto Moreira."
"Everything on this melodic, consistently lyrical effort is a jewel, and that includes Hancock's "Joanna's Theme," as well as pieces by Nascimento ("From the Lonely Afternoons" and "Ponta de Areia") and by Shorter himself. Native Dancer is clearly among Shorter's most essential albums." - Alex Henderson, Allmusic
