    Wayne Shorter
    INFP

    INFP (4w5)

    Wayne Shorter personality type is INFP, but he can act like an ENFP. He also has strong Ne.

    It's all about the Ne for me. The Ne is the one that brings out his inner emotional side, which is something I can't say for myself.

    The Ne makes him more emotional than I usually am. Ne is also the one that makes him talk about his feelings more than he usually does.

    I guess I'm just more reserved than him. Wayne's Ne is very evident. He talks about feeling emotions, which is something I don't feel, except when I'm really close to someone (or even when I'm around the people I love).

    I don't know if it's also due to my very low Fe or my very high Fi, but I don't feel like expressing my feelings like he does. He's the only person I know that can make me cry (and has done it more than once).

    Ne is also what makes Wayne talk about his feelings more than he usually does. I guess my very high Fe would tend to make me more reserved too.

In the 1960s, he went on to join Miles Davis's Second Great Quintet, and from there he co-founded the jazz fusion band Weather Report. He has recorded over 20 albums as a bandleader. The New York Times described Shorter in 2008 as "probably jazz's greatest living small-group composer and a contender for greatest living improviser." His early influences include Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane and Coleman Hawkins. Herbie Hancock said of Shorter's tenure in Davis's Second Great Quintet: "The master writer to me, in that group, was Wayne Shorter. He still is a master. Wayne was one of the few people who brought music to Miles that didn't get changed." Davis said, "Wayne is a real composer. He writes scores, write the parts for everybody just as he wants them to sound...
