About this recording:
This recording didn't seem to fare so well over the years.  It's originally listed as
an A- in my recording list, but after hearing now, I'm only giving it a B quality.
Two reasons for that:  1) Sound is too distant; 2) Low frequencies are lacking.
I played with fixing it up.  But the more time I spent "fixing" it, the less
satisfied I became.  I knew I would never be able to turn this one into a great
sounding recording, so I ended up deciding to put this out rather raw, just as
it appears on the tapes.


Weather Report Memorial Concert Series
This has been long overdue, and will still take a while to complete.
I wanted to release all of my Weather Report, Wayne Shorter, and Jaco
Pastorius recordings as part of a "Memorial" to Weather Report and its
members.  Some of these recordings were given to friends many years ago, but
most have never had a proper mastering or released.  So to most people, I
think these will be completely new recordings.  And when you see how many of
them and how good the recording quality and show quality is, then you'll
probably ask:  WTF...why haven't these ever been released?  Answer is
simple:  time.  I knew releasing this many previously unreleased recordings
was going to take a lot of time.

Some people may have copies of these one or more generations down from the
master.  All of these will be coming to you directly from the master
recordings.

Here's what to expect in the series, and in the order to be released:

Note:  This is the "rumored" Jaco recording written about in a Jaco biography.
The author writes about a "rumored" recording made at the Playboy Jazz Festival
when Jaco tore the stage apart and his own musicians eventually refused to play
for him.  Playboy Jazz promoters eventually turned the stage on Jaco to put an
end to his set.  This is the recording referenced in the book.  It's
depressing.
