Another Full Album Friday, and we look this week, at Weather Report's 1980 record, "Night Passage". Most of the tracks on this record, rather than being overdubbed, were cut live in the studio, in front of a small audience invited to take in the sessions. Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter, and Jaco Pastorius all contributed compositions to the record. The fifth track on the record, is a Duke Ellington tune, "Rockin' In Rhythm".
1. Night Passage
2. Dream Clock
3. Port of Entry
4. Forlorn
5. Rockin' In Rhythm
6. Fast City
7. Three Views of A Secret
8. Madagascar
The band is augmented by Robert Thomas Jr. on percussion, on this recording. The legendary core lineup of Weather Report, is here. Joe Zawinul on keys, Wayne Shorter on saxes, Jaco Pastorius on bass, and Peter Erskine on drums.
