Weather Report was one of the most influential jazz-fusion groups of their era and outlasted many of its contemporaries such as Herbie Hancock's Headhunters and The Mahavishnu Orchestra. Despite many personnel changes over its 16-year lifespan, they continued to create groundbreaking music under the guidance of Joe Zawinul. 'Mysterious Traveller' is the band's first to predominantly use electric bass and incorporates funk, R&B grooves, and rock. It would later on be labelled as the band's 'signature' sound. The album was voted album of the year by the readers of Downbeat for 1974, garnered a five-star review and peaked at #2 on the Billboard Jazz Albums chart.
