RIP Joe Zawinul

Weather Report founder Joe Zawinul has died, aged 75. He also played keyboards on seminal Miles Davies albums, including Bitches Brew, he is credited as bringing keyboards and synths into use jazz, and he even claimed to have been pivotal in the invention of hip-hop.

My dad was a massive Weather Report fan - he has many stories of gigs he saw - and growing up they were a major influence on my musical surroundings and development. RIP

Joseph was a huge talent. The music world has lost an important source of innovation.
