This is the first time that the band has performed … The appeal of Weather is that their sound changes drastically with the change in members, and while Zawinul and Shorter are the core members, they also bring out the talents of the other members and change their performances freely… Jazz is fundamentally based on improvisation, so the sound will be completely different if the members are different, but that’s what fans can’t get enough of. Weather is a rare group that has continued to be active at the forefront for a long time, and the interesting changes in their sound, with many member changes, have attracted many fans. However, this can never be experienced in a studio work that is a compilation of long sessions, and can only be understood by listening to a live performance… The concert started with “Black Market”, and included “The Pursuit of the Woman with…”, “River People”, “Young & Fine”, and “Mr. Gone”, which were removed from the set list the following year, and are a great pleasure for fans as they play many songs from “Mr. Gone”, a hidden masterpiece recorded when Erskine was still participating in sessions. In the second half, they performed “In a Silent Way” by Zawinul, which is a turning point for Miles Davis and is no exaggeration to say that it changed the history of jazz, as well as “Birdland” and other numbers from the smash hit “Heavy Weather”. In the encore, they performed a bold arrangement of “Boogie Woogie Waltz”, and you can hear the momentum of the group rising to become a super group. Of course, you can’t miss the solo performance corners by Shorter, Zawinul, and Jaco! This must-listen album captures the historic live performance that paved the way for a new era for Weather Report, who have transcended the boundaries of jazz and fusion, gaining support on a par with major rock groups and joining the ranks of superstars!
