If you listen several times you should her it shift from usual chords to dissonant ones, which are not quite right, also the timing keeeps moving about making it all sound weird, but it always comes back to where it should be. It must have been quite hard to play.Quote:

Wayne Shorter "Joy Ryder". Very much an out-of-the-speakers-and-around the-room sound. Which is nice :) Or maybe it's just my ears, I don't normally listen this late. "Cathay" is my favourite, even if the rest of the album was cack, I'd keep it just for that track ;)
