Mysterious Shorter is the sixth title in
Chesky's New York Sessions jazz series. The release pays tribute to the
legendary Wayne Shorter and features innovative tenor saxophonist and
arranger Bob Belden, trumpet player Nicholas Payton, guitarist John
Hart, keyboardist Sam Yahel and drummer Billy Drummond. Shorter is, of
course, the brilliant but erratic musician who casts a long shadow over
the history of jazz as a multitalented sax man and composer.
