Description:� Limitierte Edition von 1500 einzeln nummerierten Copies auf Peach Vinyl � Audiophiles 180g Vinyl � Hülle mit Leinenlaminat veredelt � Das erfolgreichste Album von Weather Report, von Downbeat Magazine mit 5 Sternen bewertet � Mit Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter, Jaco Pastorius, Alex Acuña und Manolo Badrena � Beinhaltet die Tracks "Birdland", "Teen Town" und "A Remark You Made" u.a. � Erreichte Platz 1 der US Billboard Top Jazz Albums � Weather Report war eine der einflussreichsten Jazz-Fusion-Bands ihrer �ra und überdauerte viele ihrer Zeitgenossen wie Herbie Hancocks Headhunters und The Mahavishnu Orchestra. Trotz vieler personeller Veränderungen in ihrer 16-jährigen Existenz gelang es ihnen unter der Leitung von Joe Zawinul, bahnbrechende Musik zu schaffen. Das siebte Album von Weather Report, "Heavy Weather", wurde 1977 veröffentlicht. Es ist das erfolgreichste Album der Band und das zweite Album mit Bassist Jaco Pastorius. Der Eröffnungstrack "Birdland" war ein bedeutender kommerzieller Erfolg, etwas, das für instrumentale Musik nicht typisch ist. Ein markantes Merkmal von "Birdland" ist Pastorius' Spiel von Obertönen auf seinem bundlosen Bass. "Heavy Weather" wurde veröffentlicht, als die Jazz-Rock- oder Fusion-Bewegung langsam an Schwung verlor. Dieses wegweisende Album zeigte jedoch, dass in diesem Genre noch viel kreatives Potenzial vorhanden war. "Heavy Weather" ist als limitierte Edition von 1500 einzeln nummerierten Copies auf Peach Vinyl erhältlich. - 180 GRAM VINYL
Weather Report's biggest-selling album is that ideal thing, a popular and artistic success and for the same reasons. Released just as the jazz-rock movement began to run out of steam, this landmark album proved that there was plenty of creative life left in the idiom. This powerhouse supergroup, comprised of Joe Zawinul, Jaco Pastorius, Wayne Shorter, Alex Acuna and Manolo Badrena, delivered their only certified-Platinum release with this killer cut. This vinyl release is 180 gram.
