Thanks for correcting me (and strengthening my argument). Imagine how frustrating it must have been (for Wayne and Joni) to be constrained by contracts that limited Wayne's playing time on Joni's CD's (I seem to recall that on TTT, for example, he was limited to something like 3 tracks). And the reason that he wasn't on the Shadows and Light tour, was because Weather Report's label wouldn't allow two Weather Report players (Wayne and Jaco) to appear together in a non-WR performance.

Oh he's definitely on CMIARS...check out "A Bird That Whistles".

The only post DJRD release he's not on is Shadows & Light.

Joni has said in interviews that she would not consider doing a project without Wayne.
