Feel free to go over - or under - 10 :-) Mahavishnu Orchestra - Sanctuary Last Exit - Side One of IRON PATH, which is a suite of songs much like Santana's side one of CARAVANSERAI Miles Davis - In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew Larry Coryell - Spaces (Infinite) Sonny Sharrock - tie between Promises Kept, Many Mansions, Who Does She Hope to Be and Blind Willie Return to Forever - Return to Forever and Spain Billy Cobham - Heather Jean-Luc Ponty - Mirage Miroslav Vitous - Freedom Jazz Dance Jeff Beck - Diamond Dust Herbie Hancock - Chameleon Special mention to Oregon's pieces The Silence of a Candle and Baku the Dream Eater (both from the album MUSIC OF ANOTHER PRESENT ERA), which are a fusion of acoustic jazz and Indian and world music influences. |

Besides the classic Davis and Hancock and Weather Report stuff, basically all the fusion I listen to is more accurately described as Canterbury Scene  Miles Davis - Go Ahead John Miles Davis - The Little Blue Frog Miles Davis - He Loved Him Madly Miles Davis - Mtume Herbie Hancock - Ostinato (Suite for Angela) Elephant9 - Habanera Rocket One Shot - Black P. Pierre Moerlen's Gong - Percolations, Pts. 1 & 2 Sloche - Potage Aux Herbes Douteuses Sloche - Stadacone National Health - Tenemos Roads Caravan - The Love In Your Eye/To Catch Me A Brother/Subsultus/Debouchement/Tilbury Kecks I dunno I guess some of that is probably fusion. Was always more of a bebop guy. |

I only really like prog fusion eg National health, Gilgamesh, zao etc
They have a bit more melody and they don't try and be over complex with excessive soloing etc. ------------- All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock. |
