"Live at the Detroit Jazz Festival is a compelling exercise in kinetic, deeply emotional music making (mostly) in the moment. Given Shorter's retirement from performing (he is 89 with health issues) this amounts to a gift as well as a historical document".

"The best live music takes you somewhere in the moment, though if we're lucky there will be microphones on stage to capture the moments of discovery and surprise. This happened five years ago when Wayne Shorter performed with an ensemble of former protégés and collaborators (...) at the 2017 Detroit Jazz Festival ... There are so many moments of inspiration that unfold in this set of originals and songs by Fernando Brant, Milton Nascimento, and Geri Allen; from the spacey, fractal tenor that peeps through the clouds on "Someplace Called 'Where'" to Spalding's wide intervals and languid rubato intertwined with Shorter's darting lines on "Endangered Species." Carrington has played with Shorter for three decades, and you can tell there's deep listening going on while backing Spalding's wordless vocal on "Midnight in Carlotta's Hair," as well as the spontaneous breakout Carrington-Genovese duet on "Drummers Song"".

"This splendid all-star capture from the 2017 Detroit Jazz Festival unfolds like a technicolor dream. Snippets and snatches of songs turn in space, interlock, then spin away, the power of association moving the music from one idea to the next, an oblique, diffuse approach familiar from Wayne Shorter's own quartets".
