This Is This (1986)

"This is the end of Weather Report as we have known it… Future Zawinul excursions probably will sound much like the first track on each side of This Is This, since they make prominent use of a guitar (Carlos Santana)… Santana contributes earthy emotion to Man With the Copper Fingers. Zawinuls Ill Never Forget You, dedicated to the memory of his parents, achieves a beautifully sorrowful mood. The quirky line of Update and the hypnotic China Blues stand out in a set that doesnt quite achieve the creative level of [Zawinuls] recent solo LP". (Los Angelos Times)
