O’s Notes: This is just one of many recent tributes to the legendary Wayne Shorter, while he is still alive! Positone assembled works by current and former artists for Shorter Moments. There is the expected warm sax from Alexa Tarantino on “Lady Day”, Stacey Dillard (t-sax) on “Water Babies” and Wayne Escoffery (t-sax) on ”Infant Eyes”, but there are also other featured instruments leading the melodies on Shorter’s compositions. Ed Cherry (g), Jared Gold (B3), Michael Dease (tb), Behn Gillece (vibes) and Dave Stryker (g) all capture the heart and soul is of Wayne Shorter with much respect.
