Weather Report/PA, USA 1980

A high-quality audience recording of the January 20th Upper Darby, Pennsylvania performance from Weather Report’s golden age 1980 tour after the release of “8:30”. It is recorded as an audience recording with outstanding freshness, and you can hear each sound part in rich, clear sound with good separation. This is a performance from when they were at their peak, filling the stadium class every time, and you can fully enjoy the 1 hour 46 minute super ensemble of 4 people with transcendent technique and sense. . 8:30, Sightseeing, Brown Street, Birdland, The Orphan from the 1979 release “8:30”, Madagascar, Three Views of a Secret, Port Of Entry, Dream Clock, Fast City, Forlorn from the 1980 release “Night Passage”, The set list, which is perfectly balanced with Rockin’ in Rhythm, will be irresistible to fans. Jaco’s nearly 10-minute bass solo part recorded at the beginning of Disc 2 is a must-hear part. The ad-libs that are played out against the backdrop of loop phrases using the 18th delay are also in particularly good condition on this day, and the many splendid percussive riffs that can only be expressed by Jaco truly give you goosebumps. A high-quality performance full of stimulation and excitement that allows you to enjoy familiar masterpieces with a different approach. This is a highly recommended piece.
