I could have sworn that a jazz fest was in the air.  But I guess it's hard to feel jazzy without a Clinton in the White House! I'll just have see what Man With Hat is playing while I spin a few hours worth of some Weather Report.

I'll follow what
José did and share three Polish fusion albums that you might like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnTjPlZA9c4&t=156s" rel="nofollow - Drifting Feather is an extremely innovative album by the band Paradox, which fuses elements of fusion, Zappa, flamenco, and even some 20th-century classical music. The embedded video doesn't seem to work, so I'll attach it to the text. ------------- Categories strain, crack and sometimes break, under their burden - step out of the space provided. |

May as well follow suit with José and Tymon and post some homegrown fusion. I already listed a few of these earlier, but they're great, so why not look at them again? My personal favourites are in bold. Hailing from Canada: Agharta - Agharta (1980) The Dale Jacobs Group - Live At Puccini's (1971) Dale Jacobs - Cobra (1978) Horn - On The People's Side (1972) Maneige - Maneige (1975) Maneige - Les Porches (1975) Maneige - Ni Vent...Ni Nouvelle (1977) Maneige - Libre Service (1978) Sloche - J'Un Oeil (1975) Sloche - Stadaconé (1976) Solstice - Mirage (1978) Solstice - Espresso (1981) Syncope - Syncope (1980) Toubabou - Attente (1975) And not so much fusion as it is pure contemporary jazz, but: Vancouver Ensemble Of Jazz Improvisation – VEJI (1981) And I guess there's also Lighthouse, too, but I never really considered them to be relevant to PA. ------------- when i was a kid a doller was worth ten dollers - now a doller couldnt even buy you fifty cents |
