Review

The first two Weather Report albums to feature Jaco (and two of their very best) were combined on to a single cassette, containing the smash hit "Birdland". If cassette was your format, this was a great way to pick up two great albums, but it is now out of print. ~ Sean Westergaard, All Music Guide
