After recording its first album, Weather Report picked up two new members: percussionist Don Um Romão and drummer Eric Grávátt. Dom Um Romão joined when the band toured Europe in June 1971. Zawinul had hoped to get Airto, who played on the first album, but Airto declined, having already committed himself to Miles Davis. Instead, he recommended Romã...
1. Unknown Soldier (Zawinul) 7:57
Journalist Conrad Silvert described “Unknown Soldier” as “one of Zawinul’s most complex early compositions… It is nearly symphonic in scope, an emotional evocation of bombardment and its aftermath.” Zawinul told Silvert, “In 1945 my cousin and I buried two German soldiers who had been dead a long time, in very bad shape. One guy was rolled over by a tank. We opened their uniforms to break off their name tags, but on one of them there wasn’t any tag. It’s that same old concept of the unknown s...
2. The Moors (Shorter) 4:49
In Brian Glasser’s Zawinul biography In a Silent Way, Zawinul describes how Ralph Towner’s guitar solo was recorded:
3. Crystal (Vitous) 7:23
Years later, Vitous said of this tune, “It was basically improvised; I played some fuzztone bass and some arco, and we started playing. I wrote a basic frame with a bass line and a few melody notes, and Joe found some harmonies to play and we just went on and improvised the piece within that skeleton. It’s more of an essence and a bass line than anything else.” [JB04]
5. Medley: Vertical Invader (Zawinul), T.H. (Vitous), Dr. Honoris Causa (Zawinul) 10:45
An edited version of the original medley, having been pared down from over 26 minutes to just over 10. (The entire version can be heard on Live in Tokyo.) “Dr. Honoris Causa” was written by Zawinul during a visit to his Austrian homeland in the winter of 1966-67. He originally recorded it for his album, Zawinul, in which he employed Herbie Hancock as a second keyboardist. “I named ‘Dr. Honoris Causa’ for Herbie, because he had just received an honorary doctorate from Grinnell, and he really h...
6. Surucucú (Shorter) 7:46
This track is edited from a medley that included “Lost” and “Early Minor.” The entire medley can be heard on Live In Tokyo. Regarding the title, Shorter explained that the song is named for “a snake in Brazil and Africa, too. It winds around, zig zags, and it’s fast.” [FT06, page 46]
7. Directions (Zawinul) 4:37
In 1975 Zawinul told Ray Townley of Down Beat that he wrote this tune during a trip to Austria in 1967. “I had spent a winter with my family in Austria, and I wrote about ten tunes, including ‘In A Silent Way,’ ‘Directions,’ which Miles [Davis] used to play for a long time as an opener for his show, ‘Early Man,’ [sic, ‘Early Minor’] and ‘Orange Lady,’ which by the way is 14 minutes of ‘Great Expectations’ on the [Davis] Big Fun album. But there was some kind of mess-up with the titles, so it...

Especially the 10:10 minutes long "Medley: T.H./Dr. Honoris Causa" where both Wayne Shorter and Joe Zawinul show off their skills. The fiercely fast played "Directions" is incredible too, but "Surucucus" is more of an aquired taste because of the it´s near chaotic sound.
