Weather Report Black Market Jazz Music CD Review

The extremely talented group Weather Report have released their most recent CD on the Legacy Recordings recording label, entitled Black Market.

It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn’t a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all.

Black Market is a pleasantly varied, mix of 7 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly talented musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

Listen to Black Market and I believe you’ll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired, the production is simply outstanding, and this is clearly the work of a group of musicians in top form. So much so that if you're even mildly into Jazz music you'll enjoy this album.

While the entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - Cannon Ball, track 4 - Elegant People, and track 7 - Herandnu

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Black Market. Great track!
