CD ReviewsGreat! GIMME some dignity | florianopólis, Brazil | 06/30/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Yeah, great performances by great band(s)! There's something I'd like to say about Jaco: It's not that the other bass players on WR are not good or anything of the kind (on the contrary, they`re excellent, otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to play with this band). It's just that Jaco was an outliner, not just a gifted bass player, but a true musical genious. I know this word has been misused many times, but, IMHO, his choice of notes, his sense of rithm, his notion of chords and creativity are (were) beyond the range of the wide majority of the best instrumentists. If you think that what he was all about was "beeing all over" the songs, I think you're just missing his deep and surprising musicianship. This is a highly recommended CD from a great band that once had an extraordinary musician on it. enjoy" Still Relevant After All These Years Thomas J. Semioli | New York, New York United States | 04/07/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Toss away any prejudice you may have about what a live album should or should not be. JZ's hand-picked ultimate WR concert performance is an amazing journey traversing all that was great about this genre bending ensemble: taught solos, tremendous grooves, and mind-blowing soundscapes. Stellar performances by bassists Jaco, Victor Bailey, and Alphonso, and the percussion percolates throughout. For those who bemoan JZ's omission of the first WR incarnation, there's ample documentation via LIVE IN TOKYO which I'm sure the founding WR father took into consideration. A must for modern jazz fans. Tom Semioli" Absolutely Sizzles Mr. Richard D. Coreno | Berea, Ohio USA | 08/15/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "If Miles Davis - during his electric phase - had the baddest rock band, then Weather Report arguably could be the last rock band.
Rarely are compilation packages worth taking a second glance. But this double CD set - encompassing the years 1975 to 1983, with Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul as the permanent members - is timeless in the compositions and performances. The CD is an absolute must for fans fortunate enough to see the band live or for those who want a front row seat to music that (re)defined the fusion moniker." |
