In the words of Randy Jackson: that’s gonna be a no for me, dawg. Not really in the mood for 80’s sitcom elevator music. Lulz 1.5/5
The aural equivalent of hospital food
To my ears, fusion (aka jazz rock) does a disservice to both jazz and rock. This sounds like one of the shitty demos on the keyboard my parents bought in the 80s.
No it just dont speak to me at all
Just not my music
First listen Saved 0/8
Pretty boring album, has an elevator music feel, or background music for a movie soundtrack. I like jazz but I don’t like this. This is a real chore to get through. Never need to hear this album again, and would’ve been fine never hearing it at all.
Zzzzzzzzz.
No.
Meh
I was expecting the news was about the come on at any moment. 1/5
Not for me
This is one of those times when I wish that I could advance without rating the album. I do not like this album at all. It's not my thing. BUT, people I know whose thing it IS say this album is in their top 10. One friend said they thought of Hardcore or Speed Metal as sped up Jazz Fusion. I love Hardcore and Speed Metal, but I do not make the same connection.
First track was pretty good. Then it devolved into elevator music. Jazz can be better than this.
Dull
Caused an uproar in the office and I was forced to turn it off
Gähn... lagweilliger Jazz
congratulations on the Weather Report for being incredibly committed to the bit, music suitable for a weather report intro scene when you want the vibe in your movie to be extremely 1980s. sounds exactly like the album cover, quite a feat there too. music: hated. (⌐■_■)
What is this? This is awful. How it made this list is beyond me.
why was this shit included
No. Did not enjoy this at all. It’s lame.
Piece of garbage
Stick to the weather
1.5 Didn’t even bother finishing it. Again how the fuck is this on a this list. What a load of shit
Fuck the Weather Report. This garbage isn't created for music fans - it's targeted to executive producers in network television in the hope that one of these "songs" will play over the opening credits of a late 70s TV show. This shit is created to grab royalties, not music fans. Fuck 1001 Albums Generator for introducing me to this unbearable noise. 👎👎
Welcome to Jazz Club…
It's looking pretty bleak out there.
Heavy going
couldn’t wait for this to end
either too soft or too intellectual
I don't think jazz is for me
Felt like i was bein battered by a piano while a saxophone laughed at me
These are clearly incredibly talented musicians. Still sounds like muzak/hold music to me. I want to like this; I do not like this.
The worst kind of technically accomplished but overindulgent, soulless toss
Never heard of this band before. Not being a big fan of jazz, I will certainly say that it was a lot of jazz. That is all.
I don't even like legit jazz from legit musicians like Miles Davis. But this noodling drivel that sounds like it might have been the background music at a shitty lounge in the 70s? Nope.
UGH. Did not enjoy this.
I don't want any of this in my life 1
Terrible, like being stuck on hold whilst in a lift that has broken down between floors but the music still works.
The first track is a classic. The rest is dross. Another disappointment.
Not for me, did not finish.
Who put this on the list? What critic listens to elevator jazz and is like, "Oooh, yeah. That's my shit. The world needs to hear these saxophone solos." Piss off, mate. This was a waste of everyone's time.
Fome.
Seventies US tv theme tunes. The live sounding track woke me up a little. Not my thing.
pissing it down here, guv
Not my thing, like the genre, but not enough funk from these guys
Wow. 80s background movie music. So bad
Meh
Obviously great musicians but way too muso for my liking
All I can see when I hear this music is a load of moustachioed men, bobbing their heads and grinning earnestly at each other. Birdland used to be the background music to every incidental sports medley on British television. Rumba mama doesn’t even sound like it belongs on this album, but was the best of a bad bunch. This has reinforced my view of how much I hate jazz fusion. It only brings one word to mind – SMUG!!!
I liked Rumba Mama. Otherwise, no thank you. I looked the band up and they’re really important in jazz circles. And that Rumba Mama was a live version. So while I will never listen to their studio recordings, I would probably have enjoyed them in Montreaux. The album title is the same as a song by Cousteau, a band I like very much. Now I’m listening to them.
Just, no.
instrumental, not my jam.
No me ha gustado el estilo de este disco y no lo termine de escuchar.
to smart for me maybe one day
Never again.
Alsof je een in olijfolie badende worm naar binnen probeert te werken...
Mjah, jazz is niet mijn ding en dit al helemaal niet.
Nope.
So boring! I guess it started to grow on me by the end but seriously, no likey.
Meh - not for me. bit a a jazz lounge style
This was difficult to get through.
I don't like jazz, sorry bee from Bee Movie.
Surto.
Whatever
🤮
Mmmm probando el Jazz-Fussion con sus creadores. En principio suena a intro de teleserie de los 80. No me ha interesado lo más mínimo.
Wtf is this album. Used emilys for the playlist… low end theory
Couldn't finish - sounded like a bad example of tedious noodly lounge-bar jazz
Terrible. Absolutely. This is a soundtrack for a B movie knockoff of Lethal Weapon or something.
An album I would have happily missed
I have to say.....I did not like this one
Meh
Didn’t enjoy, found it boring
Crap
Såklart veldig flinke musikere, særlig bassisten. Men jeg blir oppriktig irritert av å høre på dette. Det er noe med hele stemninga som er så cheesy og flåsete. Det albumet jeg har slitt mest med å komme meg gjennom så langt, merkelig nok.
Very strange and boring
Horrendous. Sax, cheesy bass, electric piano and congas
Seelenlose Architektenmuzak Angewiderte 0.1
Meine Güte, war das anstrengend. Hyperprätentiöses Zeug! Nachdem ich hier schon einiges entdeckt habe an Jazz den ich mag, tut es ja fast schon gut, zu hören wie Jazz klingt den ich nun ganz bestimmt NICHT mag.
Was soooooo excited that this might be a precursor to The Dead Weather... because Alison Mosshart. Will most likely never listen to this again.
I do love his voice.
