You should absolutely check out Aja. Becker and Fagen are geniuses.


Ditto! Not to mention an album to test your speakers with as well! Beautifully engineered!

A superb album, full of great musicianship and with a very strong jazz element. It may be a bit slick and song based if you're more into the Mahavishnu/later RTF style of fusion, but it's a real classic of it's time.
'Like so many of you
I've got my doubts about how much to contribute
to the already rich among us...'
