Jazz fusion specifically's something I tend to stay away from. I do have some favourites besides Miles though, namely...


Cuong Vu - It's Mostly Residual - YouTube


Freddie Hubbard - Straight Life - YouTube

Another DeJohnette collaboration.

Nexus from John Abercrombie, Jack DeJohnette and Dave Holland on Gateway 2

First two tracks off Ralph Towner - Solstice

Opening track from the Shakti album Natural Elements.

In terms of the fusion of different genres Terje Rypdal has never been one to stay in a box. I'm not real sure what you would call this piece.

That's an interesting piece. I must confess to being pretty ignorant of his work. That is some oversight on my part seeing he apparently debuted opposite Coltrane on the album The Avant Garde?

That is pretty cool. The wah-hammond reminds me of the wah-sax in this Brecker Brothers track Skunk Funk (around 1:25).

Yes, several actually :)

I apologize for going off-topic here (there's been some great fusion posted and I don't want to derail) but you NEED to get to know Don Cherry. Not only did he do that album with Coltrane but he's been an integral force on Ornette Coleman's best records and has played with the likes of Albert Ayler, Sonny Rollins and Sun Ra (I'm sure I'm forgetting some).

This album is better on paper than it is in practice. However I highly HIGHLY recommend his next two albums 'Symphony for Improvisers', and 'Orient'. They are beyond sublime.

Looks like I've got some home work :). Thanks for the tips.
