This tune was recommended to me. I did not buy ESP when it came out but I could have. I was moving in another direction. It has that unusual melodic contour and slightly abstract harmonic underpinning that way breaking new ground back in those days before Miles' Band took off in another direction and Wayne went of with Joe Zawinul's direction. It is a nice moody ballad here, with some unconventional changes that no doubt will be a challenge to make sense out of. 16 bars of fascinating twists.
Hi this piece is (as much as any other single reason) why I am a jazz musician. My musical search to find out why this composition sounds the way it does is why my stuff sounds the way it does. Thanx for posting. PS very nicely done
This is simply beautiful. Wayne Shorter's Iris is right now my favorite ballad and this is just an amazing video played by Rorke...thanks for posting!
tremendous performance!
