Guy Berger Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 This is a great, great recording. Is this a legit release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvopedz Posted September 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 I am not an expert at determining the legitimacy of releases, but....if you scroll down the webpage it says: The album is released as part of a collaborative partnership between GAD Records and Weather Report.

JSngry Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 I'm sure the band & band name were incorporated. That leaves all sorts of possibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Fab sessions -- I wonder if they will improve on the sound? All I have are the old MP3s that were floating around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 If the sound is OK, I'm certainly in. Very different track list than the Live in Tokyo album, which was recorded Jan 3, 1972, plus it has the three British horn players added on.

HutchFan Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 I was completely unaware of this stuff. I am in, most definitely. Thanks for the heads-up, @gvopedz.    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onxidlib Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 An hour ago I got a message from Germany's biggest mail order for music that my pre-order has been canceled. Hopefully this is only due to distribution et al. At least the label and the weathershop still have it on pre-order. Anyone knows more?

Guy Berger Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 9 hours ago, gvopedz said: What looks like the same tour:  Yeah. There are a few recordings of the band from 1971 - Berlin, Ossiach, and Vienna.  The band’s sound was already quite different by the time Live in Tokyo was recorded in early 1972.

Is this the same website/company that did the Weather Report crowdsourcing documentary years ago? I know it was either Kickstarter or Indiegogo I gave them like a few hundred bucks and never got anything and never heard back from my emails. Does anyone else remember this?

bertrand Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Did anyone get this? It shows as sold out from the label, and neither Amazon nor Deepdiscount have it. Where else can I get it?

sambrasa Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Comparing the LP and CD, LP version omits 2 of 3 tracks with Surman/Skidmore/Thelin, Sunrise and Mato Grosso Feio. I wager they did not want to do it a 3 LP set, but come on, those are the tracks that make this concert unique. Especially Mato Grosso Feio, such a beautiful Shorter composition, something that would fit right in on Native Dancer album, and with this nice angular early Weather Report sound to boot. CD it is for me, I guess. Edited November 6, 2023 by sambrasa grammar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
