1	Heavy Weather (1977) more music like this by Weather Report Weather Report's biggest-selling album is that ideal thing, a popular and artistic success -- and for the same reasons. For one thing, Joe Zawinul revealed an unexpectedly potent commercial streak for the first time since his Cannonball Adderley days, contributing what has become a perennial hit, "Birdland." Indeed, "Birdland" is a remarkable bit ... see all copies from $2.36! new only from $11.06!
2	Jaco Pastorius (1976) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius It's impossible to hear Jaco Pastorious' debut album today as it sounded when it was first released in 1976. The opening track -- his transcription for fretless electric bass of the bebop standard "Donna Lee" -- was a manifesto of virtuosity; the next track, the funk-soul celebration "Come On, Come Over" was a poke in the eye to jazz snobs and a ... see all copies from $2.14! new only from $11.06!
3	Mr. Gone (1978) more music like this by Weather Report On Mr. Gone, Weather Report becomes merely a cover name for a Joe Zawinul/Jaco Pastorius jazz/rock/funk record production, with several guest drummers (Steve Gadd, Tony Williams, Peter Erskine), no resident percussionist, and Wayne Shorter as a still-potent solo saxophone threat. This album was denounced in its time as a sellout, probably on the ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
4	Black Market (1976) more music like this by Weather Report The shifts in Weather Report's personnel come fast and furious now, with Narada Michael Walden and Chester Thompson as the drummers, Alex Acuna and Don Alias at the percussion table, and Alphonso Johnson giving way to the mighty, martyred Jaco Pastorius. It is interesting to hear Pastorius expanding the bass role only incrementally over what the ... see all copies from $10.40! new only from $11.06!
5	The Essential Jaco Pastorius (2007) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius The Essential Jaco Pastorius collects tracks the innovative jazz bassist recorded during the '70s and '80s. Included here are cuts off Pastorius' two studio albums as well as some of the work he did with the seminal fusion outfit Weather Report. Also featured are recordings he made with other artists including Herbie Hancock and Joni Mitchell. As ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
6	Weather Report [1982] (1982) more music like this by Weather Report For some crafty reason, Weather Report gave its 11th Columbia album the same eponymous title as its first, which no doubt led to massive retail confusion. It is the last WR album for Peter Erskine, Jaco Pastorius, and Robert Thomas, Jr.; Thomas left the band soon afterwards. And with Pastorius receding a bit into the background, the creative ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
7	Word of Mouth (1981) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius see all copies from $7.52! new only from $7.52!
8	The Birthday Concert (1981) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius On an irregular basis in the early '80s, the innovative electric bassist Jaco Pastorius led a big band that he called Word of Mouth. This excellent CD documents Pastorius' 30th birthday party, a concert at which he was joined by the Peter Graves Orchestra (consisting of 14 horns, two steel drums, and two percussionists) plus drummer Peter Erskine, ... see all copies from $5.19! new only from $7.24!
9	Word of Mouth Revisited (2003) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius Big Band Back before he turned everyone's idea of bass playing inside out, Jaco Pastorius spent five years on the bandstand with the Peter Graves Orchestra at Bachelors III, a swanky spot in his hometown of Ft. Lauderdale. Nearly three decades after the future star's departure in 1975, and 16 years after his brutal murder, Graves got the guys back together ... see all copies from $6.84! new only from $12.97!
10	The Word Is Out (2006) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius Big Band Jazz fusion bass freaks and fans of the late great Weather Report innovator first got the message that his richly textured compositions were ripe for spirited big-band arrangements on 2003's critically acclaimed Word of Mouth, whose all-star band was led by Peter Graves (whose orchestra Pastorius launched his career with) and included sharp ... see all copies from $4.39! new only from $4.39!
11 view cover	Best of Weather Report (2002) more music like this by Weather Report This Bob Belden-produced compilation includes nothing earlier than Sweetnighter and nothing later than Night Passage. A previous Weather Report compilation, This Is Jazz, Vol. 10, reaches back farther, giving listeners "The Moors" and "Orange Lady." While this one is a bit narrower historically, it still serves as a good introduction to an ... see all copies from $6.23! new only from $11.06!
12 view cover	Night Passage (1980) more music like this by Weather Report All things being relative, this is Weather Report's straightahead album, where the elaborate production layers of the late-'70s gave way to sparer textures and more unadorned solo improvisation in the jazz tradition, electric instruments and all. The flaw of this album is the shortage of really memorable compositions; it is more of a vehicle for ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
13 view cover	Forecast: Tomorrow (2006) more music like this by Weather Report In an era when box sets are so plentiful and are basically de rigueur for any major, and some not so major labels, it's virtually a wonder that a Weather Report box set didn't appear until the 21st century. Things take as long as they must, evidently, and Legacy has done an outstanding job with this set. Consisting of three CDs and a DVD of a ... see all copies from $42.20! new only from $42.20!
14 view cover	Smooth Jazz [Sony] (2001) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $12.69! new only from $12.69!
15 view cover	8:30 (1979) more music like this by Weather Report Weather Report is generally regarded as the greatest jazz fusion band of all time, with the biggest jazz hit ("Birdland") from the best jazz fusion album (1977's Heavy Weather). But the group's studio mastery sometimes overshadows the fact that it was also a live juggernaut -- so don't overlook the outstanding live and studio album from 1979, 8:30 ... see all copies from $3.89! new only from $5.11!
16 view cover	Punk Jazz: The Jaco Pastorius Anthology (2003) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius Thankfully, there is finally a definitive Jaco Pastorius anthology that offers an accurate portrait of the breadth and depth of his innovative artistry beyond what his contributions to Weather Report and his own Word of Mouth and Trio of Doom (which many would argue are sufficient in and of themselves) would suggest. This two-CD, 28-track ... see all copies from $21.45! new only from $21.67!
17 view cover	Invitation (1983) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius Electric bassist Jaco Pastorius' Word of Mouth big band made two recordings for Warner Bros. during its short life, of which is this is the superior one. The large ensemble (five trumpets including Randy Brecker, five reeds with solo space for Bobby Mintzer on tenor and soprano, four trombones, two French horns, Toots Thielemans on harmonica, ... see all copies from $8.91! new only from $8.91!
18 view cover	Ultimate Jaco Pastorius (2007) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius When talking of electric bass, no one figure garners as much respect, notoriety and awe as Jaco Pastorius. Both as a fiery soloist and a thoughtful sideman, Pastorius' singular style made its mark on the worlds of both jazz and rock -- and that is precisely the scope of Mosaic's Ultimate Jaco Pastorius collection. Culling tracks from across his ... see all copies from $14.78! new only from $14.78!
19 view cover	This Is Jazz, Vol. 10 (1971) more music like this by Weather Report Because most diehard Weather Report enthusiasts already have everything included on this addition to Legacy/Sony's This Is Jazz series of compilations, the "best of" CD serves primarily as an introduction to the fusion innovators' breakthroughs of the 1970s. While hardly the last word on the band, This Is Jazz isn't a bad introduction at all. ... see all copies from $2.94! new only from $5.45!
20 view cover	Introducing: Jaco Pastorius (2006) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius see all copies from $10.58! new only from $10.58!
21 view cover	Modern Electric Bass: Revised Edition (2002) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius see all copies from $15.98! new only from $17.70!
22	Live in New York City, Vol. 2: Trio (1991) more music like this by Jaco Pastorius see all copies from $79.95!
23 view cover	Stuttgart Aria (1986) more music like this by Bireli Lagrene with Jaco Pastorius At the end of their tour European tour -- and the triumphant concert in Rome documented on Heavy 'n Jazz -- Jaco Pastorius, guitarist Bireli Lagrene, and percussionist Serge Bringolf decided to leave the continent with at last one studio recording under their belt. The result is Stuttgart Aria. With the addition of three additional musicians -- ... see all copies from $18.00!
24 view cover	Original Album Classics (2007) by Weather Report Original Album Classics is a curious compilation of five original Weather Report LPs reissued on one CD; true fans of the band might scratch their heads a bit at this one. Included are the definitive albums I Sing the Body Electric, Sweetnighter and Mysterious Traveller. The less essential Black Market and their final official release, Night ... see all copies from $34.11! new only from $34.11!
25 view cover	This Is Jazz, Vol. 40: The Jaco Years (1998) more music like this by Weather Report The second volume in Columbia's This Is Jazz series to focus on Weather Report narrows the scope to the five-year period Jaco Pastorius spent on bass. His virtuoso playing and gigantic personality gave him a reputation rarely equaled in jazz, and this collection features all of his best moments with the band. It includes each of the six ... see all copies from $11.83! new only from $11.83!
