yea.. i remember really liking this at the time. beautiful ensemble playing. if Herbie had never got in to those ugly digital synth pads it would have been even better tho, no?

No doubt this is great jazz, but Hancock and Shorter are the best living musicians of our time? Not even close. Eveyone knows that MC Hammer and Robert Goulet are the best musicians of our time or any other!

Omar is awesome in his groove and power. Stanley sounds good w/this setting but Herbie n Wayne are the two greatest living musicians of our time. That's a hard three Stanley n Omar's laying down. Forget about it. Wayne's telling the story in his incredible solo. Fragments here, motifs there n he builds the solo. Herbie flat out plays his ass off.

I've been looking for that same music for some time... and i've been told that it's maybe a tune from Milton Nascimento, with whom this sax player played for some time... but i haven't been able to find it... let me/us know if you have more luck =)Love the groove thought =) very funky ;) =)

Who plays what?

I heard this new footprints-groove before on the "Footprints life!"cd recorded with the Wayne Shorter Quartet (with Brian Blade, John Patitucci and Danilo Perez). I can highly recommend the cd!

does anybody know what the 4/4 groove is they play directly before going in to footprints? I'm sure this is way too funky to be part of sanctuary, and I don't have the time to go listen through the original to find out whether its in there, or is it just a groove they came up with, can anyone help me with that? I'm trying to transcribe it, but wondered if it was part of another song that I'm not familiar with.
