Anybody seen this yet?



The long-awaited Legacy box set covering one of the most important and best known jazz-rock bands of the 1970s. Started by Joe Zawinul & Wayne Shorter in 1971 after they left Miles Davis's bands, Weather Report went on to achieve worldwide success both in and outside of the jazz world. The set includes 3CDs of music, selected by Zawinul & Shorter, including the key cuts from the band's phenomenal studio albums released under their own name as well as tracks made with Miles Davis & others, plus previously unreleased live material and mixes. The bonus DVD contains footage from a previously unreleased live performance from the classic 1978 lineup, featuring Peter Erskine and Jaco Pastorius. The comprehensive 100-page booklet with sleevenotes is by Bob Belden, the series producer for the acclaimed Miles Davis box sets.

Yes ndeed!!!

My radio staiton got the advanced copy (complete with no liner notes or actual front cover) and I played about 5 songs from off of it. Beautiful set of music.

I also want the "Live & Unreleased" 2-CD set from 2002.
