WEATHER REPORT - 1974 Mysterious Traveller



WEATHER REPORT.

Killer duo, Zawinul and Shorter have allready been
playing in 1959 (when i was only 6 years old) with
MAYNARD FERGUSON BAND and collaborated with Giant
MILES DAVIS late 60's, when they decided to form their
own band.The name of the band WEATHER REPORT, a
jazz/rock/fusion line up who had a long way to go with
many albums and a lot of changes in their form.According to their fans,three are the greatest albums of W.R , "Heavy Weather","Black Market" and Mysterious Traveller.

This album is not been performed by "Mahavishnu "or"Return to Forever" but from Miroslav Vitus,Wayne Shorter,Joe Zawinul,Ishmael Wilburn and the rest of this genius and amazing band.

First track,my favorite one,"Nubian Sundance", a 10 minutes dynamite!Cucumber Slumber,Jungle Book, Scarlet Woman,listen to them carefully or you will miss out all this creative force that comes out from these perfectionists.

RECOMMENDED to anyone interested in Jazz /rock Fusion and not only.

Studio Album, released in 1974
