Heavy Weather’s eponymous 1977 album is widely regarded as Weather Report’s best-selling work, with near 1 million copies sold in the U.S. It helped define the era of jazz fusion, blending core jazz sensibilities with electric textures and global influences. The track Birdland, written by Joe Zawinul and opened the Heavy Weather repertoire, became a jazz standard and entered the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2010 thanks to subsequent acclaimed covers by Manhattan Transfer and others. Weather Report released 14 studio albums, with This Is This! (1986) as their final studio release. As of 2025, there are no official Weather Report tours; modern performances are typically by tribute acts or artists performing related material.
