Wayne Shorter Quartet

-went with Paul; at Mondavi Center's Jackson Hall
-Wayne Shorter, Brian Blade, John Patittucci, Danilo Perez
-Crazy interplay; the first song was 40 minutes long!
-Sometimes felt as if the music was hanging by a thread, about to slip and I'm on the edge of my seat; all sorts of tension and release going on; at times stark, at other sweet, beautiful, explosive, raw, moody, tender, evocative, thunderous....amazing musicianship; at time I felt as if Brian Blade's virtuosity was the only thing holding group together, giving the music structure, shading, texture.
