More online info: "Saxophonist Wayne Shorter will be 80 on August 25 [2013] and this performance at the Festival des Cinq Continents in Marseille has been touted as an 80th birthday celebration. If only all of us could be so fortunate!

And in February 2013, Shorter made his return to Blue Note Records after 43 years and released Without A Net, his new album with his long-running Quartet featuring pianist Danilo Perez, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Brian Blade.

Reviewing Without A Net for the BBC, Marcus J. Moore wrote:

Jazz great Wayne Shorter recently spoke to the heart of his genre. “The six years I was with Miles (Davis), we never talked about music,” he told National Public Radio in the US. “We never had a rehearsal. How do you rehearse the unknown?”

He’s absolutely right. When done properly, jazz is a boundless medium through which improvisation is allowed to breathe. In fact, it’s encouraged…

So in the truest essence of jazz, Without a Net is a sharp return to the music’s brighter days. Orbits is a repurposed version of the Miles Davis Quintet’s 1967 song of the same name. Shorter played on the original, a sprightly number of quick drum snares and lively piano chords.

Shorter’s version is a bit darker and more methodical: above unsettled piano keys and cascading percussion, he infuses the melody with sporadic horn fills. It all makes for an exceptional recording, the saxophonist’s first since 2005’s Beyond the Sound Barrier.

Here, Shorter is firmly at the helm, yet benevolent enough to play the background when needed. The rhythm has taken him far."
