'Weather Report was an American jazz fusion band of the 1970s and early 1980s....Over their 16-year career, Weather Report explored various areas of music, centered on jazz (including both the \"free\" and \"Latin\" varieties) , but also including various elements of art music, ethnic music, R&B, funk, and rock. While their work was often categorized as \"jazz fusion\", the band members themselves generally rejected the term. From the start, Weather Report took the unusual and innovative approach of abandoning the traditional \"soloist/accompaniment\" demarcation of straight-ahead jazz and instead featuring opportunities for continuous improvisation by every member of the band. This position remained consistent throughout the life of the band. From the mid-1970s, individual solos became more prominent, but were never allowed to overwhelm the music's collective approach'..
