Fusion Obscurities

Not sure how 'obscure' some of these are but they are a few of my favorite ones.....

Yeah thanks for the recs. I too love a lot of obscurities found inside the fusion moniker. I also have a hard time with musicians that are all chops and no sauce, which is why I never really 'got' Mahavishnu Orchestra yet by the same token absolutely adore the surrounding albums made by many of the same musicians (Mwandishi, Weather Report, Miles fusion period etc etc).

For me as a musician from the 70's, there's a special place in my heart for Jazz Rock Fusion. I found most of the musicians to be high caliber players and the music to incorporate the experimental nature I like. Of course there was a lot of dribble and masturbatory shred, which I shun. But the fact that this was not radio friendly fare, I think made it attractive to me. I gravitated to it like a moth to a flame. Anyway 47 years after hearing Tony Williams Lifetime, I am still finding music I never heard before. No not all of it is new, just new to my ears. I thought I'd share some stuff  I've been digging lately. If you like tasty fusion, maybe you'll like it too. Peace all.
