Tracks list

Weather Reports ever-changing lineup shifts again, with the somewhat heavier
funk-oriented Leon Ndugu Chancler dropping into the drummers chair and Alyrio
Lima taking over the percussion table. As a result, Tale Spinnin has a weightier
feel than Mysterious Traveller, while continuing the latters explorations in
Latin-spiced electric jazz/funk. Zawinuls pioneering interest in what we now
call world music is more in evidence with the African percussion, wordless
vocals, and sandy sound effects of Badia, and his synthesizer sophistication is
growing along with the available technology. Wayne Shorters work on soprano sax
is more animated than on the previous two albums and Alphonso Johnson puts his
melodic bass more to the fore. While not quite as inventive as its two
predecessors, this remains an absorbing extension of WRs mid-70s direction.
