What the Critics Say
Weather Report's fourth recording finds Wayne Shorter (on soprano and tenor) taking a lesser role as Joe Zawinul begins to really dominate the group's sound. Most selections also include bassist Alphonso Johnson and drummer Ishmael Wilburn although the personnel shifts from track to track. "Nubian Sundance" adds several vocalists while "Blackthorn Rose" is a Shorter-Zawinul duet. Overall the music is pretty stimulating and sometimes adventurous; high-quality fusion from 1974. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

Weather Report is one of the greatest Fusion Groups of All Time. This is evident by the succession tof hit after hit. Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul are jazzful artists of many countless masterpieces. If you don't believe me, check out some of their art (albums, cds, etc.) I guarantee that the picture that they paint in your mind will be one that even picasso could not put down. LeWilk
