Out Of Stock
A pretty serious orchestral score by Alex North, designed to accompany an ABC documentary about the changes in Africa during the 60s. Given that the documentary takes a look at the emerging politics and cultures in post-colonial Africa, it's amazing how white and western the soundtrack is – a seven part orchestral-suite titled "Africa", all strings and dramatic moods, with no attempt whatsoever to bring in African styles of music or instrumentation! CD
One of the most compelling albums ever recorded by Wayne Shorter – a triple-length set that may well be his most visionary package in years! The vision is partly expressed in a beautiful graphic novel that comprises the outer package – a long, full-color book that was written by Shorter, and illustrated Randy DeBurke – all with a positive, uplifting spirit that's really carried forward by the music – which begins with a segment that merges Shorter's quartet with the larger Orpheus Chamber Orchestra – who give this really lofty presence to a set of Wayne's original compositions. The quartet continue on the other two discs in the package – that great group with Danilo Perez on piano, John Patitucci on bass, and Brian Blade on drums – recorded live in London, on long titles that include "Lotus", "She Moves Through The Fair", "Prometheus Unbound", "Lost & Orbits Medley", and "The Three Marias".
