Blue Note, 1966
Wayne Shorter had already set a high bar over the course of his first several Blue Note albums, which included all-time jazz classics including Night Dreamer, JuJu, and Speak No Evil, but 1966s Adams Apple featuring Herbie Hancock on piano, Reggie Workman on bass, and Joe Chambers on drums immediately joined the ranks of the saxophonists greatest recordings and remains a pinnacle artistic statement of Blue Notes fertile post-bop era. Shorter composed 5 of the sessions 6 tracks including the grooving title track, which surely had producer Alfred Lion dancing around Rudy Van Gelders studio. Other highlights of this sublime set include Jimmy Rowles arresting 502 Blues (Drinkin And Drivin), Shorters bossa-inflected El Gaucho, the tender ballad Teru, and the first recording of his timeless composition Footprints, which Shorter would record again later that year with the Miles Davis Quintet for the album Miles Smiles. The album closes with the evocative composition Chief Crazy Horse featuring Shorters trademark harmonic twists and a churning solo spotlight by Chambers.
