Night Dreamer is the fourth album by American jazz saxophonist Wayne Shorter.

[5] With a quintet of trumpeter Lee Morgan, pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Reggie Workman and drummer Elvin Jones performing six Shorter originals.

[6] In 2005, it was reissued as part of the RVG Edition series with liner notes by Nat Hentoff.

He meant "Virgo" (Shorter's star sign) to be "optimistic", whilst in "Black Nile" he tried to get a flowing feeling, like a "depiction of a river route."

[...] I'm both looking back at the good things in those older blues and also laughing at that part of my background".
