Back in 1980, Weather Report consisted of Wayne Shorter (tenor and soprano sax), Joe Zawinul (keyboards), Jaco Pastorius (bass), Peter Erskine (drums), and Bobby Thomas Jr. (percussion). Often considered as one of the best line ups in the band's history, this was a super tight combo playing with the same energy and power of a big band. The 1980 tour, also known as the "Night Passage" tour, is also remembered for the great visual impact, a large-scale staging including laser and film projections. The Atlanra Fox Theater show sees the band at its peak, performing great renditions of classic tunes such as Zawinul's "Madagascar" and "Fast City," Pastorius' "Three Views of a Secret," and Shorter's "Port of Entry." This is an important live document from the greatest electric jazz band of all times, period!
