Dezo Ursiny - Pevnina detstva
This is an excellent fusion album from Slovakia that is quite obscure. The artist was only just put up on PA yesterday hence the lack of reviews. So seek it out, the other albums by him are not really jazz/fusion so look for this one in particular!

Conrad Schrenk is rare, but if you hear it you'll realize it was worth the effort to find such beautiful music. He's like no other.

The only I got now are

-Return to Forever
-Planet X
-Billy Cobham
And unfortunately...I think thats it. Though I'm probably missing a few. |
earlier someone suggested Tony Williams and those albums seem to easy to find here in the states.... they are great albums..and essential.

from the Italians..
HIGHLY recommend Area... but not if you want strict jazz-rock/fusion... because they weren't. Perigeo were more traditional JR/F and I love their albums. Great stuff

Tony Williams is an excellent choice. He's one of the first pioneers. Also Conrad Schrenk Extravaganza comes to mind.

Well I think its about time someone started a apreciation thread on this sub-genre, I'm mainly keen on Mahavishnu, AREA, Perigeo, Al di Meola, Bill Bruford, Return to Forever, Zappa and softmachine (in their Jazzy works) now does anyone can tell me of another groups I and a lot of people interested in this genre should start their acquintance? Ideas?thoughts? opinions? new groups we should start hearing and old groups we dont discuss a lot?
