Footprints: The Life and Work of Wayne Shorter [Hardcover] Review

Footprints: The Life and Work of Wayne Shorter [Hardcover]Michelle Mercer has done the seemingly impossible:she has fully inhabited the far-out imagination of one of our greatest, and at times, seemingly most unreachable musicians, and brought back the subject from the outer space he's been confined to. Yes, it's a book about jazz; but only, truly, as an explication of life.Yes, it's a biography, but it's neither a Pollyana bio-pic nor is it a psychobabble psychobiography.Additionally, despite the affirming names of Shorter and Herbie Hancock on the cover, this effort is hardly an as-told-to "approved" bio.It's actually quite wonderfully like its subject: funny, strange,compelling--and as serious as your life.
