I've just heard Joe Zawinul has died, in Austria. A huge loss.

Yup, I just heard that too. How can I have no Weather Report in the house? I guess there are bad puns available, how I could mourn him In A Silent Way - but nah, Bitches Brew it is...

The Zawinul Syndicate's World Tour double CD has lately been getting a regular airing in this house, like now. Somehow it sounds even better today.

It is fab, isn't it? Again, no copy here. Must do something about this...

I'll have to cue Eno's "Zawinul/Lava" tonight.

That's too bad. I liked the first couple Weather Report albums. Yes, they were albums, 12" vinyl records.

Aaargh.

And I was just about to try to book tickets for his previously forthcoming gig at the Barbican.
