Mahavishnu Orchestra...no contest.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

...hmm, Kansas vs Mahavishnu... they are very different things...
 
Let's say Kansas.
 
(on about jazz-rock I prefer Return to Forever and Di Meola... and Macedonian Leb i Sol).

I would beg to differ - by a LONG shot. Come on, McLaughlin played at Woodstock with Miles Davis in Bitches Brew. Jazz/fusion musicians take the cake for best musicianship as an overall genre I think, especially compared to the competent Kansas. All hail Mahavishnu Orchestra!

Cobham,Laird, Hammer, Goodman and McLaughlin vs Livgren, maybe Walsh, perhaps Steinhart but Hope, Ehart are an average rhythm section. Mahavishnu wins, this playoff.
