This Is This: The Incredible Journey of Weather Report

“[There’s] a…scene in the movie [The] Deer Hunter [where] Robert De Niro [says],‘This is this and there’s no escaping the consequences of putting this [bullet] in the chamber and cocking that rifle.’ and that is something that Joe Zawinul picked up on…because he recognized it had that attitude that conveyed exactly what he was about; no bull, no screwing around; let’s get down to basics; let’s get down to a point where we cannot avoid what is essential about what we’re trying to do.” –Author Ken Kupernik 2016
