We often speak of prog on this blog, we usually loved by metalheads, both listeners and musicians, but the most attentive among you certainly know that many of our idols often cite among their influences jazz. If we think of those fringes that go by the name of fusion, jazz rock and electric jazz, we can realize how the border wall with prog rock is going to thin. And in the most avant-garde metal we know that these kinds music coexist peacefully. Who laid the foundations laid down the rules and the so-called primitive or electric jazz rock, whatever you want were just the Weather Report, founded in 1970 by brilliant musicians like Joe Zawinul on keyboards and Whayne Shorter on saxophone (both already in the court of Miles Davis), author of 15 albums in 16 years and whose career total of backbone it was Jaco Pastorius, the greatest electric bassist passed on this planet (and certainly coming from another planet), whose talent is still unmatched as enormously as crying for his tragic and untimely death. Their repertoire was so experimental and revolutionary to stay still relevant today and inexhaustible source of inspiration. This book analyzes in detail the history of both musical and human, telling of friendships deep and complex issue and all the noise created by the architecture group. Christophe Delbrouck, born in 1966, combining his musical career to that of journalist, writer and author of excellent biographies such as that of Santana, The Who, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and Frank Zappa. The book comes out for the kind of careful and sophisticated Alternative Press (www.stampaalternativa.it) in the series Jazz People.
