I like the Softs, but Weather Report at the height of their powers was a moving fortress.

OK, that was maybe somewhat of an exaggeration... Let's say a whole light week

The Soft Machine takes my vote, but I must admit that Weather Report is quite amazing.

-same as Sean, but maybe not by a whole light year (and despite everything I quite like Black Market).

I only really like the Vitous-era of Report (the first three & the double live)... Don't care that much for the Alphonso Johnson albums (2), and TBH, I really have difficulties with Jaco at the bass (he overdoes everything by tons)
So it's The Machine by a light year.

From watching a 1970 concert of the Spft, they to me can compete with the best and well renown jazz fusion bands in the US in both groove, melodicisme and band interplay. So who to you carry the heavyest stick in creating the wildest fusion of jazz,rock and what ever.
lets concentrste on the Soft between 60s anf 70s and Weather Report in 70s. whos yout favs? |
