Happy birthday to Wayne Shorter - Ponta de Areia

The Native Dancer series is  special gift to the legendary Wayne Shorter on his 87th birthday, celebrated on August 25th.
Shorter recorded Native Dancer in 1974, soon after moving to California and it shows his love for Brazilian music; he decided to team up with iconic Brazilian singer #MiltonNascimento shortly after meeting him in Brazil circa 1972. Nascimento and his Brazilian friends, the maestro and pianist #WagnerTiso and the drummer #RobertinhoSilva, came to Los Angeles to record the album with Shorter, #AirtoMoreira, #DaveMcDaniel, #DavidAmaro, #JayGraydon, and #HerbieHancock.
