5 important jazz artists made important contributions
to progressive rock 1. Herbie Hancock - Headhunters (best selling jazz CD in US) 2. Billy Cobham - Spectrum (Cobham, Bolin and Hammer, nuff said) 3. Airto Moreira - The Other Side of This (worlds best percussionist) 4. Joe Zawinul - Dialects (Bitches Brew composer concocts Lunatic Broth) 5. Jean-Luc Ponty - Enigmatic Ocean (violin virtuoso through Zappa filter), Very best of CD combines other highpoints, but the residue is there any other opionions out there? |

Jan Hammer's got to be on the list, due to his collaborations with Beck, Johnson, Schon, etc.

I have that record, it rules! anyway I'd have to say that many chick corea stuff as in return to forever's romantic warrior would be considered prog. |

What a poor choice! There are definitely better Zawinul choices than dialects. For one thing, Dialects was recorded once Weather Report broke up in the mid-80s. Better choices would include his self-titled "Zawinul," his work on Cannonball Adderly's "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" or something from the WR catalogue, such as "Mysterious Traveller" or "Heavy Weather" Yeah, Enigmatic Ocean is a fantastic record. I also like Imaginary Voyage. And lets not forget Inner Mounting Flame by the Mahaviushnu Orchestra! |

Dude! Venusian Summer is incredible! Get it yesterday. Lenny's 3rd, Adventures Of Astral Pirates is not quite up to par (IMHO), but it's still first-rate 70's fusion. AND...AND...something else everybody should pick up: the new remaster of Caldera's very first 1976 album. Imagine a mix of Santana, Weather Report, and Return To Forever!!! Phuqqin' fantastic piece of work. CDUniverse has one copy left, at the moment, but Laser's Edge has copies, too. http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=6797146&ca rt=216710752&style=music&Bab=E |

I liked Miles Davis - On the Corner
think his best is THE HOT SPOT Soundtrack with John Lee Hooker, Taj Mahal, John Hammond and Branford Marsalis with Jack Nitzsche producing, not progressive, maybe regressive
