Title: Weather Report lives on!
Review: If you are already familiar with this supergroup, then the tune selections will more than please. Many different incarnations of the band are present- bassists Jaco Pastorius & Alphonso Johnson, drummers Chester Thompson, Omar Hakim, Peter Erskine, Alex Acuna and percussionsits Manolo Badrena, Jose Rossy, and Acuna join founding memebers Wayne Shorter and Joseph Zawinul . Electric and harmonically advanced tunes imbued in African and South American sytles shape this 2-CD set. The only quibble lies in the less than excellent recording quality. If your a Weather Report fan, this surely is the CD set you have been waiting for...if your new to this group, starting out with some of their previous releases would be advisable ( e.g. Black Market, Heavy Weather, Mysterious Traveler ).
