Super Nova – Wayne Shorter

“Super Nova,” released in 1969, marks Wayne Shorter’s thrilling foray into the world of fusion jazz. Departing from his traditional hard bop and post-bop roots, Shorter delves deep into the territory of electric instrumentation, rich percussion, and global sounds. It’s an audacious blend, a testament to Shorter’s boundless innovation. While perhaps jarring to purists, this album exemplifies the spirit of late ’60s jazz, foreshadowing the genre-blending excursions to come.
