Speak No Evil is the sixth album by Wayne Shorter, released in 1966. It is considered one of Shorter's finest albums and a landmark in the development of jazz. The album features Shorter on tenor saxophone, Freddie Hubbard on trumpet, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums.
The music on Speak No Evil is a combination of hard bop and modal jazz. The hard bop tunes, such as "Witch Hunt" and "Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum", are characterized by their fast tempos, complex melodies, and driving rhythms. The modal tunes, such as the title track and "Infant Eyes", are more relaxed and atmospheric.
Shorter's compositions on Speak No Evil are some of his most innovative and challenging. The melodies are often asymmetrical and unpredictable, and the harmonies are often ambiguous and open-ended. This gives the music a sense of mystery and suspense, which is further enhanced by the solos of Hubbard, Hancock, Carter, and Jones.
Speak No Evil is a masterpiece of jazz composition and improvisation. It is an album that rewards repeated listenings, and it continues to inspire musicians today.
