Recorded on this date in 1964. By April nineteen sixty-four, Shorter had already logged time with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, but Night Dreamer was his moment to step forward as a leader with something to say. Blue Note paired him with Lee Morgan on trumpet, McCoy Tyner on piano, Reggie Workman on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums -- borrowed from Coltrane's quartet for the session. Featured tracks: Night Dreamer, Virgo Deep in the Stacks is a daily jazz podcast from Kissa Kissa in Brooklyn.
