Black Cherry Jazz - "American Tango" (Weather Report Cover)
Black Cherry Jazz - "American Tango" (Weather Report Cover)

Black Cherry from Curitiba, Brazil are definitely funky and pay a wonderful tribute to the unorthodox Jazz fusion style of Weather Report with their Rock-tinged cover of "American Tango". The lead guitar featured on this cover lends more of a Rock influence to the composition, but overall Black Cherry manages to keep the dark, improvised Jazz instrumentation style which Weather Report displayed on the original. Some of you may know the 1974 song by Weather Report to be sampled by the likes of Diamond D, Brand Nubian and O.C. who as Hip Hop artists used it to create classics in their own right.

In covering this very original style of Jazz, Black Cherry show one of their main influences and the qualities which make them original as an experimental band. These talented musicians from Brazil bring a high standard of Jazz, Funk and Rock fusion which rival the work of pioneers within the genre.
