Wayne Shorter – More Than Human (1969)

More Than Human is the last track on Wayne Shorters album Super Nova, recorded in 1969 and released on the Blue Note label.

It was the summer of 1969, flower power was in the air, conventional hard bop was in serious trouble, and Wayne Shorter wrought the hipfest Super Nova in the company of a gaggle of guitarists and percussionists. Super Nova , while typical in many ways of jazz in 1969, is by no means the average Blue Note session or the average Wayne Shorter album, but it has its charms.
