Podcast appearances and mentions of Wayne Shorter

Terri Lyne Carrington has spent her life behind the drums—and out in front. In this wide-ranging conversation, the Grammy-winning musician, educator, and activist reflects on her remarkable journey from child prodigy to visionary bandleader, and from mentee to mentor. She shares stories from her early gigs with jazz legends like Clark Terry and Buddy Rich, her formative years with Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter, and her ongoing work shaping the next generation through the Berklee Institute of Jazz and Gender Justice. We spoke on the occasion of We Insist 2025!, Carrington's powerful new reimagining of Max Roach's classic 1960 protest suite. But the conversation goes far beyond the music—it's about legacy, leadership, gender equity, and the responsibility of artists to help create a more just and expansive world. As Carrington puts it, “Only an open hand receives.” www.third-story.com www.leosidran.substack.com www.wbgo.org/podcast/the-third-story

It's a challenge to describe bassist John Patitucci. He's a 2025 Jazz Journalists Association Award winner for Electric Bassist of the Year, and four-time Grammy Award winning artist, one of today's elite bassists, not just jazz but in all of music, but that's too limiting. John is a bassist with not only excellent rhythm but a complex, angular rhythmic style with dynamic and warm tones and a style that moves people emotionally as well as physically. No, that's too inadequate. John describes himself as, “a man of faith.” But when I step back, I realize all the above pretty much sums it up. A Brooklyn, New York native, John Patitucci's musical history is, in his words, a “Cinderella story.” At 25 years old, he was suddenly whisked away by iconic jazz pianist Chick Corea to join his new band, the Chick Corea Elektric Band and later the Akoustic Band where he played a large role in developing the sound of jazz fusion of the 1980s and 90s. It was Chick Corea who facilitated Patitucci's connection with GRP Records to make his first recordings and then tour the world, quickly becoming a global jazz figure. The story continues in 1986 when he was invited by saxophonist legend Maestro Wayne Shorter to contribute to his Columbia Records project Phantom Navigator. This led to Patitucci joining Wayne Shorter's 20-year four-time Grammy Award winning quartet, along with his good friends, pianist Danilo Perez and drummer Brian Blade. For John, this was the ultimate life. While Chick's band set John on a forward trajectory, it was in Wayne Shorter's band that he grew spiritually as well as technically. “The things that happened on stage are spiritual experiences for me. It's been transformative.” It's this spiritual development that is the pinnacle component of our conversation. John's “faith” plays a large role in his music, his stage presence, and his relationships with key band members including saxophone giant Chris Potter and legendary drummer Brian Blade. His fondness for pianist Danilo Perez continues from their brotherhood in the Wayne Shorter Quartet. This conversation occurs just as John, Danilo Perez, and Brian Blade returned with iconic saxophonist Ravi Coltrane on the three-week Wayne Shorter Legacy Tour in Europe. We open the episode recounting the tour and the importance faith played in it. We spent time delving into his recent recording, Spirit Fall, laughing and enjoying ourselves describing the compositions that impressed us the most. The creation and emotional depth of Spirit Fall, recorded without rehearsals, is a focal point of the conversation, illustrating the trio's deep connection and improvisational synergy that's felt throughout the album. Thanks to Edition Records, there are three tracks to listen to on this episode. The John Patitucci Trio: John Patitucci-double bass/electric bass, Chris Potter-tenor saxophone/bass clarinet, and Brian Blade-drums/percussion. The playlist: Think Fast (6:51), Spirit Fall (6:18), and Lipi'm (7:40), all John Patitucci compositions and produced by John Patitucci. Thank you for listening to this podcast.

(S4 EP 21) Wayne Shorter's -Apple Apple (Blue Note)  Released October 1967 - Recorded February 3 and 24, 1966Wayne Shorter's Adam's Apple (1967) is a landmark post-bop album that captures the saxophonist at his creative peak. Recorded in 1966 at Van Gelder Studio, the album features Herbie Hancock (piano), Reggie Workman (bass), and Joe Chambers (drums)—a quartet that delivers both lyrical subtlety and rhythmic daring. The record blends blues, modal jazz, Latin grooves, and impressionistic balladry, showcasing Shorter's sophisticated yet accessible compositional voice. Tracks like the iconic “Footprints” and the soulful title track highlight his melodic clarity and harmonic depth. Hancock's intuitive comping and soloing add dimension throughout, while Workman and Chambers bring texture and flexibility. This was the first recorded version of “Footprints,” later made famous by Miles Davis. Produced by Alfred Lion for Blue Note, Adam's Apple is one of the finest examples of mid-'60s jazz, balancing structure and exploration. It remains a timeless, essential entry in Shorter's catalog and the post-bop era..Signature Song: "Adam's Apple," "El Gaucho, “"Footprints"Full Album: YouTube  Spotify Playlist: YouTube

The iconic jazz trumpet player Freddie Hubbard was born in Indianapolis on April 7th of 1938. During his extraordinary career, Hubbard made enormous contributions to hard bop and fusion music, performing on landmark albums by John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones, Sonny Rollins, Wayne Shorter and many others. Hubbard also issued many classic recordings as a bandleader. Nine of those albums appeared on the Billboard charts and his 1972 LP First Light earned a Grammy award for "Best Jazz Performance by a Group". Hubbard's technical mastery of the trumpet earned widespread critical acclaim and drew comparisons to legendary musicians like Miles Davis. Freddie  Hubbard passed away in 2008 at the age of 70, but his impact on music endures. His influence extends beyond jazz, shaping hip-hop as well. His recordings have been sampled by some of rap's most respected artists, including A Tribe Called Quest, Raekwon, Common, J Dilla, and MF DOOM. In this episode, we'll celebrate Hubbard's birthday by exploring the use of his music in hip-hop.

Léa Freire - compositora, flautista, pianista, arranjadora e criadora do selo Maritaca - está comemorando 50 anos de carreira. Para homenagear a artista, um documentário sobre seu trabalho e uma apresentação de flauta e piano estão previstos nesta quinta-feira (3), em Paris. O evento faz parte da Temporada França Brasil 2025. Em “A Música Natureza de Léa Freire”, o diretor Lucas Weglinski desenha o percurso da artista, um talento burilado desde cedo, começando com aulas de piano erudito aos 7 anos. Aos 16, Léa Freire passou para o violão popular ao conhecer a escola CLAM (Centro Livre de Aprendizagem Musical), dirigida pelo Zimbo Trio, a quatro quadras de onde ela morava. Na sequência, ela adotou a flauta transversal como instrumento de predileção.Um encontro inusitado dentro de um Fusca selou a amizade de Léa Freire com Filó Machado, instrumentista, compositor, cantor e compositor. “A gente começou a tocar junto e ficava andando de flauta e violão pela madrugada em São Paulo. Imagina, hoje em dia nem pensar, né? E a gente tocava nas escadarias da [avenida] 9 de Julho, que hoje virou um banheiro público, na Praça Roosevelt”, conta Léa. “Tinha uns mendigos que ficavam dormindo ali de dia, de noite, quando a gente estava tocando. E tinha uns que gostavam, outros que mandavam a gente parar”, ri a artista. A dupla ensaiava na praça porque a quitinete de Filó era pequena demais. “Tinha que abrir a janela para trocar de camisa, de tão pequena”, conta.O mundo de Léa Freire naquela época, entre a rua Augusta e praça Rossevelt, era de bares de música ao vivo, toda noite, das 22h às 4h da manhã. Outro encontro chave foi com Alaíde Costa, que acolheu Léa em sua casa durante algum tempo, pois a família da flautista não aceitava esse estilo de vida. Com Alaíde e Filó, Léa tocou para crianças da Febem, um sistema carcerário para menores extinto em 2006. “As crianças ficavam abandonadas, sem pai nem mãe, e não podiam sair, ficando à mercê de todo tipo de abuso”, lembra.No começo dos anos 1980, Léa também foi beber na fonte americana, estudar na mítica escola Berklee, de Boston. Também foi ver os mestres ao vivo, como Wayne Shorter e McCoy Tyner, entre outros, nos bares de Nova York, ouvindo na plateia ou mesmo do lado de fora. Mas o rigor do inverno afugentou Léa, que fez a mochila e foi descendo pela América do Sul.MisoginiaTanto Léa quanto outras artistas entrevistadas no documentário de Weglinski falam sobre o machismo no mundo da música. Como era desbravar a selva de bares paulistanos durante a madrugada? “Meu apelido era sargento Freire, não à toa, sou imune a essas violências”, explica. "Não que não tenha sido vítima." Ela conta que sofreu todos os tipos de abusos misóginos, desde mãos apalpando suas pernas enquanto tocava até cantadas abusadas.Ela acha que hoje a situação está melhor para as mulheres, pois elas são mais numerosas no meio musical. “É uma profissão muito competitiva, então com mais mulheres, fica mais leve. Em São Paulo, tem até uma big band só de mulheres que se chama Jazzmin's e que é muito legal”, conta.Uma virada de chave aconteceu com um hiato na carreira durante 11 anos. Depois de ter o segundo filho, foi informada de que tinha direito a quatro meses de licença no bar onde trabalhava. “Fiquei dois. Voltei. Já estava despedida. Aí cansei." Léa resolveu estudar administração de empresas e virou diretora de uma grande empresa. Mas o estresse desse mundo acabou levando a artista a um burnout.Seguindo conselhos médicos de fazer o que lhe dava prazer, Léa voltou-se para o piano e à composição. E criou o selo Maritaca. "Tem cantor, tem estrangeiro, tem tudo. É uma avacalhação, mas tudo bem, desde que o foco seja a música instrumental”, explica.Léa tem vários projetos em curso, mas revela um desejo, “o de tocar em um puteiro”. Por quê? “Porque eu ia ficar só observando, tocando, ensaiando, ninguém prestando atenção, já pensou?”.DocumentárioEm "A Música Natureza de Léa Freire", lançado em 2022, Lucas Weglinski trabalha com imagens de arquivo da artista e depoimentos de colegas, como Filó Machado e Alaíde Costa. "Eu comecei a trabalhar com a Léa no primeiro disco de piano solo dela, chamado 'Cine Poesia'. E daí eu comecei a filmar as apresentações musicais dela e cenas do cotidiano", conta o diretor. "E isso começou a me dar uma vontade enorme de fazer um filme sobre ela, principalmente vendo ela fazendo um sucesso enorme na Europa, no Japão, nos Estados Unidos e tendo ainda que ser apresentada na própria cidade que a gente vive", explica Weglinski, que está acompanhando a artista em Paris. Em Paris, Léa Freire se apresenta no Théatre de la Concorde. Ela faz um pocket show tocando flauta, acompanhada pelo maestro e compositor Felipe Senna no piano.

For this bonus episode, the Shakespeare and Company podcast welcomes Jeremy Pelt, renowned jazz trumpeter and author of Griot: Examining the Lives of Jazz Great Storytellers. In conversation with Alex Freiman, Pelt discusses the evolution of jazz, the influence of oral traditions, and the importance of documenting firsthand accounts from legendary musicians. Reflecting on his early days at Berklee, his experiences touring worldwide, and his deep reverence for jazz elders like Roy Haynes and Wayne Shorter, Pelt shares insights into both the triumphs and struggles of jazz musicians. He also addresses the debate over the term “jazz,” the intersection of jazz and hip-hop, and the ongoing challenge of preserving the music's integrity in an industry that often sidelines its true practitioners. Listen in for a compelling exploration of jazz history, culture, and the passion that fuels one of its modern torchbearers.*Jeremy Pelt has become one of the preeminent young trumpeters within the world of jazz. Forging a bond with the Mingus Big Band very early on, as his career progressed, Pelt built upon these relationships and many others which eventually lead to collaborations with some of the genre's greatest masters. These projects include performances and recordings with Cliff Barbaro, Keter Betts, Bobby "Blue" Bland, Ravi Coltrane, Frank Foster, Winard Harper, Jimmy Heath, Vincent Herring, John Hicks, Charli Persip, Ralph Peterson, Lonnie Plaxico, Bobby Short, Cedar Walton, Frank Wess, Nancy Wilson and The Skatalites, to name a few.Pelt frequently performs alongside such notable ensembles as the Roy Hargrove Big Band, The Village Vanguard Orchestra and the Duke Ellington Big Band, and is a member of the Lewis Nash Septet and The Cannonball Adderley Legacy Band featuring Louis Hayes. As a leader, Pelt has recorded ten albums and has toured globally with his various ensembles, appearing at many major jazz festivals and concert venues.Pelt's recordings and performances have earned him critical acclaim, both nationally and internationally. He has been featured in the Wall Street Journal by legendary jazz writer and producer, Nat Hentoff, and was voted Rising Star on the trumpet, five years in a row by Downbeat Magazine and the Jazz Journalist Association. Pelt is currently touring throughout the United States and Europe in support of his latest release, "Soundtrack".Alex Freiman is a guitarist, composer, and singer trained at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Drawing from jazz, blues, soul, and funk, he masterfully blends these influences with energy and virtuosity, creating music that is both groovy and sophisticated. After collaborating with major figures on the French and international scenes, including Stéphane Belmondo, he released his debut album as a leader, Play It Gentle, in 2017. Recorded with Léon Parker (drums), Fred Nardin (organ), and special guest Stéphane Belmondo, this album reflects his passion for improvisation and sonic elegance. Constantly seeking innovation, he launched Alex Freiman & The Hot Sauce, an explosive project where jazz, funk, soul, and hip-hop intertwine. His EP In The Beginning (September 2024) marks the start of a new musical era, followed by the singles We Are One (January 2025), featuring rapper Tiemoko, and This Is The Hot Sauce (March 2025), affirming his vibrant and innovative musical identity. In 2025, Alex Freiman continues his groove exploration with a new album and fresh collaborations. Alex Freiman & The Hot Sauce will also be performing in Paris and across France, delivering electrifying shows where improvisation and energy collide.Listen to Alex Freiman's latest EP, In The Beginning: https://open.spotify.com/album/5iZYPMCUnG7xiCtsFCBlVa?si=h5x3FK1URq6SwH9Kb_SO3w Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Renee Rosnes has traced a momentous musical trajectory over the last 40 years. A pianist and composer of exceptional insight, she’s served apprenticeships with Joe Henderson, Wayne Shorter and Ron Carter, and earned rare stature among her peers. Almost a decade ago, she formed Artemis, an all-women cohort that just released its third album, Arboresque. Rosnes also has a new solo release, Crossing Paths — her first full-length album of Brazilian music, a longtime source of inspiration. (She enlisted two certified legends, Edu Lobo and Joyce Moreno, for the project.) In this conversation, Rosnes opens up about all of the above, as well as the “concrete ceiling” that female instrumentalists are forced to contend with, even now.

Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Russell Hall migrated to the United States in 2007 where his double bass studies progressed quickly through the rigorous programs of The Dillard Center for the Arts and The Juilliard School. Russell deeply understands the jazz tradition, having studied with many of the double bass world's most renowned artists including Ron Carter and Ben Wolfe. Still, he is also an artist looking forward with his own distinct approach to the double bass.   As a first-call bassist in New York City, Russell has performed with some of the biggest names in music including Joey Alexander, Wayne Shorter, Wynton Marsalis, Branford Marsalis, Jon Batiste, Roy Hargrove, Kathleen Battle, Christian McBride, Emmet Cohen, Russell Malone, George Coleman and many more.  Well known for his work with the Emmet Cohen Trio alongside drummer Kyle Poole, Russell also leads his own bands, including Bessie and the Rainbowkids to much critical acclaim.  Russell Hall joined the Discover Double Bass faculty as a jazz bass specialist in 2022 where he presented his course, Bessie's Bass Busters.  Russell Hall is well known as a member of the Emmet Cohen Trio and bassist for the wildly popular ‘Live From Emmet's Place' series. In this video, he was joined by non-other than the great Christian McBride for a tasteful double bass duo.

(S4 E6) Miles Davis - Miles Smiles (Columbia)  Released February 16, 1967. Recorded October 24-25, 1966  Miles Smiles (Columbia) is a landmark album by Miles Davis' Second Great Quintet, featuring Wayne Shorter (tenor saxophone), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (bass), and Tony Williams (drums). The album exemplifies post-bop innovation, blending modal jazz with freer rhythms and structures, referencing avant-garde without discarding form. The album's compositions highlight the quintet's collective improvisation and chemistry, with Shorter contributing standout tracks like "Orbits" and "Footprints." Davis's lyrical, introspective trumpet playing on "Circle" showcases his evolving style, while Hancock's minimalist, right-hand-centric approach adds depth. Carter's bass lines and Williams's dynamic, experimental drumming propel the group's sound. Tracks like "Footprints" and "Dolores" emphasize rhythmic complexity and harmonic exploration, solidifying the quintet's legacy as jazz innovators. Miles Smiles received critical acclaim for its groundbreaking sound, remaining a vital document of Davis's transition into more exploratory territories.

Tonight's Jazz Feature is a previously unissued concert with an early version of Miles Davis' "Second Great Quintet" . This concert was part of the Paris Jazz Festival and recorded on Oct.1,1964 at the Salle Pleyal. It features Miles Davis on trumpet, Wayne Shorter on tenor saxophone, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass and the teenage genius on drums, Tony Williams. The repertoire is the same as Miles had been playing for several years but was being stretched in new ways. Eventually Miles would drop many of these tunes in favor of original compositions by himself and the band but that was in the future. Everyone here is in top form and Wayne Shorter is playing here with the same intensity as he did in his many years with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. Sit back and enjoy this never before heard music by one of the great bands in Jazz History.

A mediados de la década de los '60 del pasado siglo irrumpe en Estados Unidos el Free Jazz como una manifestación más de los movimientos emergentes que reivindicaban, cada vez con mayor vehemencia, los derechos de los negros norteamericanos. Esta nueva música, suponía un nuevo paradigma en la concepción del jazz que prescindía de las normas que regían hasta el momento la forma de hacer jazz en sus aspectos melódicos, armónicos y rítmicos. Un movimiento rebelde y disruptivo, más político que musical, que rompía amarras con los estándares impuestos por la sociedad y la cultura blanca que mantenía una intolerable opresión sobre el colectivo afroamericano hastiado de abusos e injusticias. Sin embargo. una buena parte de los músicos de aquella generación, aún simpatizando con los principios políticos y sociales que justificaban esa nueva música, decidieron no dar un paso tan osado hacia aquellos territorios desconocidos y se mantuvieron en una frontera musical en un límite que, conservando en lo esencial los vínculos con el jazz ortodoxo, introducía elementos innovadores procedentes de aquel revolucionario movimiento encabezado por músicos como Ornette Coleman, Don Cherry o Cecil Taylor y del que John Coltrane fue proclamado su líder espiritual. El resultado sería una música fronteriza y apasionante, navegando entre dos aguas, con continuas incursiones dentro y fuera de la tonalidad, que conformaría finalmente el mainstream jazzístico de los ‘60 y ‘70 del pasado siglo y que, aún hoy en día, es la principal referencia del jazz acústico contemporáneo. Radio Jazznoend os invita en nuestro nuevo podcast a un largo viaje por aquella frontera azarosa y aventurera de la mano de algunos de los mas relevantes artistas de aquella era, como Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson, Charles Tolliver, George Russell o Booker Ervin, entre otros.

Igmar Thomas is a New York-based trumpeter, composer, and bandleader of the jazz ensemble, Revive Big Band. Thomas and the band have just released their debut album, Like A Tree It Grows, which reimagines compositions from Thelonious Monk, Wayne Shorter, and more for a big band format. Thomas is with us for a Listening Party and to discuss his career, his process, and his experience as Music Director for acts like LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes, The Fugees, Nas, and Lauryn Hill.

Jazz is a constantly evolving art form, offering some of the richest lessons in creative collaboration. A melody and chord progression provide the foundation, but as each musician brings their unique improvisational perspective, the music takes on unexpected, transformative shapes. If you ask any fan of the genre who's pushing jazz into new territory, Kamasi Washington's name will come up—likely at the very top. His 2015 album The Epic won the American Music Prize and stands, in our opinion, as one of the greatest jazz records of the 21st century. Kamasi contributed to Kendrick Lamar's Grammy-winning To Pimp a Butterfly, scored Michelle Obama's Netflix documentary Becoming, and has collaborated with musical legends like Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Lauryn Hill, Nas, Snoop Dogg, Chaka Khan, and many more. In this episode, we spent an evening with Kamasi, exploring his creative process, what he's learned from his collaborators, his philosophy on collaboration, and his latest album, Fearless Movement. Find show notes, bonus content, and more on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/kamasi-washington Bio Kamasi Washington, born in Los Angeles in 1981, grew up surrounded by music, with a saxophonist father and a flutist mother who nurtured his musical talent from a young age. Kamasi's journey began with drums and piano in his early years, progressing to the clarinet at age seven and finally to the tenor saxophone at twelve, mirroring his father's path. His high school years at Hamilton High School Music Academy were pivotal; there, he joined the renowned Multi School Jazz Band and learned from jazz icons like Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. Kamasi's talent was quickly recognized when he won the John Coltrane Saxophone Competition, and he co-founded "The Young Jazz Giants," which marked his early step into professional music. Kamasi's musical evolution continued at UCLA, where he studied ethnomusicology and expanded his understanding of global music traditions. This foundation supported his wide-ranging collaborations beyond jazz, where he worked with artists like Snoop Dogg, Raphael Saadiq, and Kendrick Lamar. Yet, despite his diverse influences, Kamasi remained firmly rooted in jazz, ultimately channeling these experiences into his innovative sound. His 2015 debut album, The Epic, was a monumental release—a three-disc exploration of jazz that introduced a unique blend of spiritual depth and musical complexity. The album garnered critical acclaim, broadening Kamasi's reach and establishing him as a leader in modern jazz. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.

Today, the Spotlight shines On Josh Johnson, the Los Angeles-based saxophonist, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and Grammy Award-winning producer.Josh joined me earlier this year to talk about his second solo album, Unusual Object, which came out this past April on Northern Spy Records. Equal parts futuristic jazz and modern composition, Josh uses processed saxophone and subtle samples in his unique compositions.In addition to examining Unusual Object, we discussed the relevance and impact of genre classifications in music, how Josh's Grammy has led to more opportunities and connections in various music communities, the impact of Chicago's artistic community on Josh's development as a musician, courage in the pursuit of creative avenues, and of course, it would not be an episode of Spotlight On if we did not dig into process. So we did.Josh will be at the Village Vanguard in New York from October 29 through November 3 with Vibraphonist Joel Ross's Good Vibes ensemble.

World-renowned saxophonist and Blue Note recording artist Walter Smith III is the model music educator and practitioner. This enormously talented saxophonist pursued music education as a profession as far back as high school. In this episode, Walter's storied career follows the path beginning with performing at McDonald's at age 7, to an exciting area of study at one of today's premier high schools, Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts (HSPVA) in Houston, Texas to leadership roles at Berklee College of Music, reflecting on experiences at the Thelonious Monk Institute (today, the Herbie Hancock Institute) and exciting tours with legends like Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock. Gender equity in jazz, a priority for Walter, is spearheaded by the Berklee Jazz and Gender Justice Institute, and innovations in jazz education promoting inclusivity. Walter touches on his transition from Boston to New York, emphasizing the interplay between performance and teaching. Walter Smith III just released his eleventh album as a leader. Our conversation on Strictly Jazz Sounds also takes a deep dive into three of us are from Houston and Reuben is not. This project includes three of his closest music cohorts who are three of the most accomplished and influential musicians in jazz today: Jason Moran-piano, Reuben Rogers-bass, and Eric Harland-drums. The music does not disappoint in any way. We listen to clips of selected tracks, discuss the music and the significance, if any, of the composition titles. Walter is/has been a member of many legendary and highly accomplished groups (recording and/or touring) including the Roy Haynes Fountain of Youth Band (Walter was fired when he decided to go to Los Angeles, California), Terence Blanchard Quintet, Jason Moran's In My Mind: Monk at Town Hall, Ambrose Akinmusire Quintet, and the Christian McBride “Situation”, He's also teamed up with Eric Harland's “Voyager”, the Bill Stewart Trio, Marquis Hill's “New Gospel Revisited”, and the Sean Jones Quintet among others.

The title of this week's episode comes from a term that legendary rock photographer Norman Seeff uses to describe a truly innovative artist, one who is willing to risk sacrificing their career in order to expand beyond their creative comfort zone. He calls these people “boundary dweller artists.” Norman says that he sees Joni as the archetype of this concept. Her evolution to incorporate jazz influences in the 70s, threw some of her fans for a loop, but as we've heard in previous episodes, Joni was not concerned with what others think. Working with the likes of Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock and Charles Mingus, Joni pushed her own boundaries. She pushed Norman's boundaries, too. His photo sessions with Joni Mitchell spanned over 15 years and 12 sessions, and his photography of Joni has appeared in the album packaging and covers for Court and Spark, Hissing of Summer Lawns, Don Juan's Reckless Daughter, Hejira, Dog Eat Dog, and her Hits and Misses compilations. Norman Seeff tells host Carmel Holt that Joni is one of the most courageous people he's ever worked with, and in this fascinating episode that traces Norman's road to Joni and where it led him, we learn how the process of writing and compiling his book Joni: The Joni Mitchell Sessions he realized that he had not only captured Joni's metamorphosis but he also had been led to the guiding philosophy about creativity and the artistic spirit that has guided his work, and his personal evolution.
