Notes Weather Report was a seminal jazz fusion band of the 1970s and 1980s. Originally a spin-off from the group of musicians centered around Miles Davis in the late 60?s and early 70?s, the stable core of the group was the duo of pianist Joe Zawinul and saxophonist Wayne Shorter, while the other musicians were rotated with almost every album. Initially, the band's music featured extended improvisation, similar to Davis' "Bitches Brew"-period work. Later recordings were more melody-oriented, and had greater mass-market appeal. Of those, most notably, the lineup introduced virtuoso bassist Jaco Pastorius in 1976. This soundboard show has minor pops between tracks, sounds absolutely brilliant, and features Jaco on bass and Erskine on skins. Wow!! Joe Zawinul (Keys), Wayne Shorter (Sax), Jaco Pastorius (Bass), and Peter Erskine (Drums). Kickass! Thanks for this awesome gift Guru Ed!!
