I first heard of this band on Toast of London, when Steven Toast was dating Clancy Moped. Clancy was a ‘weather girl’ and was telling Toast her favourite bands over dinner: “the Weather Report, Snow Patrol, Earth Wind and Fire, especially the Wind bit”. On the day of writing, Spotify suggested an album by the Weather Report, Heavy Weather, which I listened to intently. It is a jazz fusion album which was integral to the genre.
The cover is really quite interesting, with a brimmed hat hovering over a city, with a cloud coming from the top and lightning from the bottom. The cover is quite striking and describes the title of the album This is the most striking album I have seen so far this month. And the album is not half bad either.
