You'll Hear It: Full Album Deep Dives with Jazz Musicians29 Jun

Heavy Weather – Weather Report

🔥 Don’t Miss Our Best Price of the Year! (Ending Soon)
https://www.openstudiojazz.com/summer-sale-2026/

Weather Report's Heavy Weather became one of the best-selling jazz albums of all time. But there's so much more to it than "Birdland", Heavy Weather's radio hit. In fact, Peter makes the case that it might just be the weakest moment of the entire record.

Jazz pianists Adam Maness and Peter Martin break it down track-by-track: From Jaco Pastorius's fiery fretless bass, to Joe Zawinul's beautiful piano, to the less-than-perfect production. You'll never hear Heavy Weather the same way again.
