The best band ever, prog or no prog !

These guys could play, and they knew how to *compose*. (Especially
Kerry)

The magic of GG is that while most songs sound "difficult" rather than
nice at first, they sound better and better the more you hear them, and
you won't get bored when you've heard a song for the 50th time.

I just start to get into Weather Report. Heavy Weather and Black Market
are awesome. What would you recommend from Zawinul's solo stuff?
(His *sound* has dramatically changed, and not for the better, on what
little I've heard of his recent work ...)
