on BBC Radio 3

Jez Nelson continues his four-part profile of the influential saxophonist Wayne Shorter.
After he left Miles Davis, Shorter teamed up with keyboard player Joe Zawinulto form the jazz-fusion group Weather Report. Fans of Shorter's earlier work often have misgivings about the band, feeling that it became increasingly dominated by Zawinul. However, in this programme, Weather Report drummer Peter Erskine reveals some intriguing facts about how the creative partnership really worked.
