2013 album from the Jazz legend, his first album on Blue Note as a leader in 43 years. Without A Net is a nine track musical thrill ride that consists of live recordings from the Wayne Shorter Quartet's European tour in late 201 1 , the one exception being the 23-minute tone poem 'Pegasus' which features the quartet with The lmani Winds recorded at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. The album features six new Shorter compositions, as well as new versions of his tunes 'Orbits' (from Miles Davis' Miles Smiles album) and 'Plaza Real' (from the Weather Report album Procession). The quartet also reinvents the title song from the 1933 musical film Flying Down To Rio, which film buffs (such as Shorter) know as the first on-screen pairing of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.
