Yeah, you're absolutely right, this one fact alone is more than enough to invalidate the entire site and render the efforts of all those who contributed to it pointless and void.  I just wish I'd had this insight sooner!

Are The Doors , Led Zeppelin, etc.(in the archives) more of a Prog band than Patto?

I DON'T really think so.
 
You may disagree , but I doubt you have heard their discography (jazz-rock sounds like PROG to me) in full.

Just got a copy of Hectic Watermelon's The Great American Road Show in from the US - great music, which slides back and forth across the straighter prog rock and jazz rock boundaries - Jerry Goodman's violin adding to those uncertainties.
The best eclectic music on the Web,8-11pm BST/GMT THURS.

2 records i recently acquired that jazzrock folks might also be interested in:

Mandarin Movie - s/t (Aesthetics)

Good ol' Rob Mazurek's Mandarin Movie project is a headspinning dip into the deep dark waters of electro noise and extreme metal aesthetics.......guaranteed to crush!!!

Shining - In The Kingdom of Kitsch You Will Be a Monster (Rune Grammofon)

This album is released on the same label which hosts almighty Supersilent.  Shining's previous albums were pretty much acoustic jazz-based works but this latest album sees them going all-out avant prog.  Thrilling stuff!!!

just got my copy of Laboratorium's Modern Pentathlon cd reissue.  Freekin awesome!!!  The way they use the electronics reminds me a little of Herbie Hancock's Sextant but in all this is pretty original and unique stuff.  Brilliant!!!

thats great man!!!

judging by one of yr previous posts recommending Afric Pepperbird ( i have that too) and other albums i thought you might like the Chicago-school.  Their roots are not so much in jazzrock but more in the Art Ensemble of Chicago/Sun-Ra mold of composed/improvised jazz. Hey, but its thru them (incl Tortoise and Isotope 217) that i first discovered Weather Report, Miles and other jazz rock........

that said, anyone who likes jazzrockfusion should be able to like the Chicago Underground Trio and Quartet albums..........

Yes it is. But it's worth it. Big smile You get all their albums (studio and live) with a lot of bonus material plus a CD with previously unreleased material. 10 CDs!

The Anthology of course. Besides that they issued only three of their albums on CD before: Modern Pentathlon, Quasimodo and Anatomy Lesson. I highly recommend especially the first two (you can see them in my sig).
The Anthology is quite an investment!  I'll look out for the individual albums you mention though, thanks.

I bought it having never heard them before and was blown away. You can find their biography, discography and lineup here: http://metalmind.pl/index.php?dzial=artysci&id=212
I'm intrigued - shame the record label doesn't have any streams...

Excellent stuff....
This sounds interesting, thanks.  I'll check it out.  Any particular recordings you would suggest as a starting point?
