Shorter, Wayne
Night Dreamer
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed 2023 remastered reissue for the Blue Note Classic Vinyl series. Small corner bump. Cut by Kevin Gray from the Original Analogue tapes. "Tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter's Blue Note debut found him well prepared to enter the big time. With an impressive quintet that includes trumpeter Lee Morgan, pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer Elvin Jones, Shorter performed a well-rounded program consisting of five of his originals, plus an adaptation of "Oriental Folk Song." Whether it be the brooding title cut, the Coltrane-ish ballad "Virgo," or the jams on "Black Nile" and "Charcoal Blues," this is a memorable set of high-quality and still fresh music. [Some reissues add an alternate take of "Virgo."]" All Music Guide - Scott Yanow
