This amazing live album, released on vinyl for the very first time, features recordings from three European shows in 2001. It showcases Shorter’s ‘Footprint Quartet’ - pianist Danilo Perez, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Brian Blade, all performing at their best. They give fresh and challenging takes on the title track and ‘Masquelero’, which date back to Shorter's time with the 1960s Miles Davis Quintet. This Verve By Request record is pressed on high - quality 180 - gram vinyl at Third Man in Detroit. Tracklist: Side A - 1. Sanctuary, 2. Masqualero; Side B - 3. Valse Triste, 4. Go; Side C - 5. Aung San Suu Kyi, 6. Footprints; Side D - 7. Atlantis, 8. Ju Ju.
To use this vinyl LP, first make sure your record player is clean and in good working condition. Gently place the LP on the turntable, center it, and lower the tonearm carefully onto the starting groove. When you're done listening, lift the tonearm back to its rest position and cover the LP to protect it from dust. To keep it in great shape, handle the LP by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the playing surface. Clean it regularly with a vinyl cleaning brush. Store it vertically in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent warping.
