Big fan of Weather report here. A question that's bothered me for some time. Contrary to many I like This is This quite a bit. My question is about I'll never forget you. Is that really Wayne Shorter playing? First of all the sax sounds strangely "synthed" and the playing, especially some parts during the second climatic part, sound very much like a lead played on a keyboard; although I'll admit that there's no reason that it couldn't be the equivalent of a lyricon, or whatever effects were en vogue at the time. However, it is also on record that Shorter had a very limited participation on the album, hence my doubts.
Is it him or Joe Zawinul on one of his synths?
Thx for any FB
