Totally agree with listening to this 10 times a day. As a young bass player back in the day, this track turned my world upside down and I never looked back. It's kind of orchestral in it's construction -- no parts repeat (much). Awesome, timeless music.
the thing I love is that every now and again, in the middle of jamming along, the vocalist or Zawinul will break into some random riff, and the band will be following - it's through-composed!
Lack bass? Listen to it on vinyl or CD or I tunes on proper speakers. Prepare to have your opinion changed. Agree with everybody else. Check out the Metropole Orchestra tribute to Joe. Not as good obviously but a beautiful tribute nonetheless.
I spent a whole summer listening to this track 10 times a day; every time I listened I heard something new. I could listen to it 10 times a day even now and it would still sound heavenly. It has not dated.
everything was fantastic with this music. unbelievable beauty... songs with unbelievable titles... mysterious traveler, nubian sundance, american tango, jungle book, cuncumber slumber, blackthorn rose...

Sure, it's Johnson. Sorry, I wasn't clear. To me, anyone criticizing Weather Report bass player who's not Pastorius, is 'just another Jaco wacko'...

@PrZemek44 It's Alphonso Johnson on bass.
