Alan Shorter - Mephistopheles to Orgasm Revisited (2024)

“He was nomadic. The strongest and most lasting thing you can say about Alan is that he was an original, as original as you can get. He didn’t want any academic guidelines to equip him to reinvent the wheel. If he saw something like that, he’d go the other way.” - Wayne Shorter
