Damn Wayne Shorter is just phenomenal. The Greatest living musician upon this earth. He has no equal. Just unreal no words can describe what a giant this man is.
Alphonso Johnson is the baddest motherfucker to ever pick up a bass. They can talk about Stanley and Jacko and they are phoenomenal of course but none of them have the groove and feel of Alphonso. He is the unsong hero of all the progressive bassist.
This is a great video of a very fine rearrangement of an old tune (check some of the other videos on this site). High Life is an underrated cd, maybe it was too complex, I know I received it well when it was released.-Check it out!
Are there any other videos available from this concert ? I just located another one (The three marias) and I'm a big fan of this period of Wayne Shorther.
@plectrum71 David Gilmore on guitar?!? well certainly not the one that played with pink floyd...but maybe he made the same thing as michel jackson and got white...hmm i wonder... this is such a great fuson version. thanks for posting it!!!
Rodney Holmes on Drums
