Nope. I still listen to it when I hit traffic on the way home from work. It seems to possess a calming effect.......

I'm a big fan of Weather Report and Michael Brecker, though 90% of you wont know who they are.

I never really interested myself into Weather Report, do you like shorter's other stuff, with Davis per exemple? And as for Brecker, what albums of him do you have? I didn't think that guy was into funk or w/e. I have the album of him where he plays with Tyner and Metheny (cant remember the title offhand)

I've seen Shorter and Tyner last summer at Montreal's Jazz Fest. Shorter's music was so weird hehe.

Yeah I definitely like the other Wayne Shorter stuff. His solo albums are really good too. If you're interested, check out "High Life." I'm a huge Jaco Pastorius fan and I like his solo stuff more than what he did with Weather Report actually.

Brecker isn't exactly into funk, but he does a lot of weird arrangements and rythms that are pretty sweet if you're into funk. A few of his albums have weird synths and stuff too. My favorite Brecker album is actually his most recent, "Wide Angles." Lots of really crazy rythms and sounds. Also check out "Two Blocks From the Edge."

Lately I've also been listening to a lot of Mingus and Kenny Garret also. Nice to see another jazz (and pot) fan here. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
