A Hard Road: Bluesbreakers [2 CD Expanded Ed.] The idea that very technically demanding music could also appeal to a popular audience seemed like utter folly.

If all you want on CD is just their one UK hit single Birdland then this CD is right for you...and you are not too fussy over the remainder of tracks which i assume are all culled from other various WR albums.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 13, 2017

There's lots of good stuff here, all in top quality sound. Some of the tracks need a little time, but you'd expect that of quality music, wouldn't you? Also, I agree with one commenter's statement that Weather Report was not a "supergroup," as the original writer suggested. It not just a collection on album cut.The producers of this CD took the best songs from Weather Report and put the in a very listenable order, that to me make it Your recently viewed items and featured recommendations

Really good quality introduction to the bands work and really good starting point or revisit. This is a must have Cd for any fan real of Weather Report. Listen to Birdland, Teen Town and more from Weather Report. A re-listen to both the second Weather Report and Night Passage reveals some extremely creative stuff, even better than some of Heavy Weather. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. From 39 people Teen Town Weather Report. Not a great CD to say the least. Wouldn't they?
Not as cutting edge or nostalgic as I remember.
Well, no, as it turned out.
A shame because the mastering and liner notes are superb, but regardless, what's here is possibly the best single-CD collection ever put together for this band. The video for Weezer's "Pork and Beans" features YouTube stars Chris Crocker, The Chocolate Rain Guy, The "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" Banana, and the Star Wars kid. It avoids their later albums, which lack the sparkle & invention of their earlier years. Your recently viewed items and featured recommendations 103,042 listeners Pat Metheny.

There were so many versions of the band that Joe Zawinul and Wayne Shorter called home that this compilation probably should have been called The Best of Weather Reports. Here's a list of the top weather songs of the 1980s including artist, year, record label, and description. The variety in jazz/rock fusion is incredible, and WR music here demonstrates this well: from the exquisite, elegiac 'A Remark You Made' to the wonderfully rhythmic & addictive 'Boogie Woogie Waltz', plus of course 'Birdland', which sadly is the only piece many have ever heard.
