I can describe the latest release from Jazz super group Weather Report for you with just one word… Outstanding!

It’s a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I’m more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.

One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you’ve got one of Weather Report most impressive releases ever.

Overall Mr Gone is excellent from beginning Fender CD-140SCE Acoustic-Electric Guitar. Black to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Jazz fan. Really sensational from beginning to end.

While this entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 – River People, track 3 – Young And Fine, and track 8 – And Then

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – The Pursuit Of The Woman With The Feathered Hat. Outstanding!
