JSngry Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 Glad he's still alive, fresh, and crazy. God bless him. Quote
P.L.M Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 Seen him last year with his quartet (at the MIDDLEHEIM). Amazing. Seen him this year with the same quartet, again (at THE BLUE NOTE FESTIVAL). Music was slightly different and yet more amazing, for this reason.

sidewinder Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 (edited) Indeed a very Happy Birthday to Mr Shorter, still one of the most unpredictable tenor/soprano players around and one of the greatest composers in this music. His recent appearance at Northsea Rotterdam was an inspiration. Glad I was there ! Edited August 25, 2006 by sidewinder Quote
CJ Shearn Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 Happy b-day again to Wayne. Man, he looks fantastic at 73, still plays fantastic too Quote
Alon Marcus Posted August 26, 2006 Report Posted August 26, 2006 Few days ago I listened to one of his recent live recordings with Danilo Perez and John Patitucci and he sounds great. More experienced than ever, impecable diversity in his phrasing and maybe the best soprano alive. I think he just became better with the years. Quote
ep1str0phy Posted August 26, 2006 Report Posted August 26, 2006 Happy birthday--and yeah, hardly looks his age (nice to see the youthful energy is there, if wiser...). Quote
ghost of miles Posted August 25, 2008 Report Posted August 25, 2008 Up for a happy 75th... just archived the Night Lights show The Wayne Shorter Songbook. Quote
sidewinder Posted August 25, 2008 Report Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) A Very Happy 75th Birthday to Mr Shorter !!! :party: Fortuitously diggin' listening to The Man last night on the 'Plugged Nickel' set. Fantastic playing ! Edited August 25, 2008 by sidewinder Quote
bertrand Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Posted August 25, 2008 Adding my birthday wishes to one of the greatest musicians this world has ever produced. It's been about 25 years since I first discovered his music, and I can't describe how my life has been enriched by it. Bertrand. Quote
