This Is This!

This Is This! is the sixteenth and final studio album by Weather Report, released in June 1986. The band thought that it had fulfilled its contract with Columbia Records through the release of the previous album, Sportin' Life. This, however, was not the case, and the band had to release one more record.

gollark: The atmosphere clearly doesn't conveniently congeal into bands of different densities, which is obvious if you look at clouds and also the oxygen/nitrogen mix it contains.
gollark: You are, though, as you just solved the economy and also climate change.
gollark: Amazing, you just solved the economy.
gollark: Those are directly practical skills. Research, while often valuable, doesn't pay well because the applications are a while down the line.
