| | Tim McMahon Illuminations CD Tim McMahon Discography of CDs
The Tim McMahon Ensemble is led by Southern California drummer/composer Tim McMahon.The idiom is a more modern and adventurously spirited version of quartet, quintet and sextet original and standard jazz group writing. There are a tremendous variety of moods which highlight the album,each distinct composition drawing from intelligent use of the ensemble palette...like the dreamlike hymn which opens "the Eye of Ra",or the driving horn lines of "Labyrinth".The writing is intricate, logical,and always evocative of an emotional experience.There's rhythmic excitement,intensity and daring...(paraphrased notes of Jed Wilson)

Japanese version featuring a bonus track: 'Crazy Horse'
Personnel: Wayne Shorter (soprano & tenor saxophones); Danilo Perez (piano); John Patitucci (bass); Brian Blade (drums).
Recorded live at Festival De Jazz, Vitoria-Gastiez, Spain; Jardins Palais Longchamps, Marseilles, France; and the Umbria Jazz Festival, Perugia, Italy in July 2001.
FOOTPRINTS LIVE! was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Instrumental Album.
2002, Japanese issue; features the bonus track, "Chief Crazy Horse."
First the hard stuff: there was no way that Legacy was going to be able to completely represent Wayne Shorter's five decades in music in a double-CD package. That's a given, and they cop to it in the liner notes. However, what they have done is admirable in that they have cross-licensed material from all parts of Shorter's working life, from the Jazz Messengers to his Blue Note period to Miles to Weather Report to his work as a featured guest with pop musicians to his fusion work to his Footprints band at the beginning of the 21st century. As a result, the portrait given here is surprisingly rich, varied, and full both of composer and soloist. Disc one commences with his "Lester Left Town" from the Jazz Messengers' Big Beat album in 1960, where Shorter is teamed with Lee Morgan, Bobby Timmons, Art Blakey, and Jymie Merritt. Moving to the Blue Note period, the regret is that the only two pieces chosen are from Speak No Evil -- the title track and "Infant Eyes" -- and none were taken from his other fabulous outings for the label. Also here is "Time of the Barracudas" from Gil Evans' The Individualism of Gil Evans, offering a brilliant solo by Shorter in a band that also featured Kenny Burrell, Elvin Jones, Gary Peacock, and Julius Watkins. The Miles period is represented by "E.S.P." (of course), "Footprints" from Miles Smiles, "Nefertiti," and "Sanctuary" from Bitches Brew. Shorter's ...
