One of Shorter's best-selling albums from the '70s was 'Native Dancer,' a Brazilian-oriented jazz-fusion masterpiece that boasts Herbie Hancock on acoustic piano and electric keyboards, and employs such Brazilian talent as singer Milton Nascimento (a superstar in Brazil) and percussionist Airto Moreira. Everything on this melodic, consistently lyrical effort is a jewel, and that includes Hancock's 'Joanna's Theme,' as well as pieces by Nascimento ('From The Lonely Afternoons' and 'Ponta De Areia') and by Shorter himself ('Ana Maria,' 'Beauty And The Beast'). 'Native Dancer' is clearly among Shorter's most essential albums. (All Music). Comes on blue vinyl.
