RIP Wayne Shorter

Sad news. I truly regret never seeing him perform live.

Sad news, indeed. We lost a genius/giant.

Sad, not unexpected from what I have seen of him the last few years. He’ll be missed; he left us a lot of music to enjoy.

Here’s something I did not know, from wiki:

Singer and actress Tina Turner credits Shorter with saving her life. In Turner’s 2020 spiritual memoir Happiness Becomes You , she states that Shorter and his wife Ana Maria provided Turner with critical refuge at their home for six months after Turner left her abusive husband, Ike Turner, in 1976
