rare prog from early 70s

Weather report was badass. You don't have to like them, but it can't be denied they were seriously accomplished.

And for chrissakes they had Jaco! how can you hate them? Outright dissing a band of that caliber pretty much reduces any further posts from you to pretty turds...
what is it with metal kidz and their jaco worship? weather report's music is boring, for me that immediately disqualifies them from being good

im sure if you gave any old joe a copy of kind of blue theyd say it was boring too


bzzzz. wrong answer. theres a reason why kind of blue is not only the gateway jazz album...its also the greatest selling jazz album of all time. an estimated 1 in 10 households owns it as of the late 80s i beleive.
 
ok you win. bad analogy. weather report kicks ass, im gonna go listen to black market now. :bah: wayne shorter and joe zawinul are kings. KINGS. they freaking ride around in old rolls royces with fur coats on and fight evil. its true.
 
no problem

isnt there another version called group girl? i dl'ed it, and it sounds better than golf girl to me...

also the gentle giant video is worth it just for the drummer's facial expressions...hilarious!

I wanted to keep this tread alive by asking, NFU what albums if any would you recommend from Mahavishnu Orchestra?
