Passport, led by Klaus Doldinger was a European fusion group that I really liked that has fallen through the cracks of time. I would substitute either of Stanley Clarke's self titled "brown" album or his School Days album for Children of Forever. Also, I'd pick Jean Luc Ponty's Enigmatic Ocean album over the one listed here. And Santana's Welcome album instead of Love, Devotion and Surrender. Weather Report's Black Market would make my list too.

Trying to get views? Sad either New to Fusion and or too Young to know

😂😢

Is this song about Zionism?

👌😉

Feel by George Duke is an excellent choice, followed closely by The Aura Will Prevail.

"We're all gonna die of nuclear war, so this song is called Hung Drawn and Quartered" 😂😂😂 Matt Pike at 300% Matt Pikeness 💯 💯 💯

Nice list I would add these for you to check out Terumasa Hino: Hi-Nology Miles Davis: Agharta Alphonse Mouzon: Mind Transplant Nucleus: Belladonna If: 2, 3 or 4 are all awesome Tony Williams: Believe It Eddie Henderson: Inside Out & Realization (my holy grail’s) Out Of Focus: S/T Demon Fuzz: Afreaka UK: Debut & Danger Money Bill Bruford: Anything Return To Forever: Where Gave I Know You Before Alan Holdsworth: IOU Live Santana: Lotus (live)

Great list! Includes 2 of my favorite fusion masterpieces, Elegant Gypsy and Birds of Fire.

Jukka Tolonen was guitarist mainly in the jazz-rock fusion band called Tasavallan Presidentti but played also in Wigwam both supergroup in prog. scene. Tolonen has also several soloalbums and Tolonen! was the first among them.

You forgot Passport! Most people like Cross Colateral, but my favorite is Iguacu. Also, 5 other great bands include: Shadowfax (Watercourse Way), Gong (Shamal), Flora Puirim (Open Your Eyes, You Can Fly), Brand X ( Unorthodox Behaviour), and Pekka Pohjola (Mathematician's Air Display). Finally, Jukka Tolonen's Cross-section is a masterpiece.

Wonderful selection! Aera - Hand und Fuss (Germany) Secret Oyster - Straight to the Krakenhaus ( Denmark) Fermata - Huascaran (Tchecslovakia) Iceberg - Coses Nostres (Spain) Energit 1976 (Tchec) Area - Arbeit Macht Frei (Italia) Are in my top 10

George Rice was a legend

Chapters: “The Report” should be “Weather Report”

I discover and look for good music! you should have made us listen to a sample from each disc, you have to pause and go to RUclips one by one!

My favorite Jazz Fusion LP. Rough Draft by Apprentice. Hard to find, tough to beat!

I'm sorry, but you don't really know Jazz Fusion. Where are the artist like The Brecker Brothers (Any of them), Return To Forever ( Romantic Warrior for ex.), Jan Hammer (Oh Yeah), Tony Williams Lifetime, Miles Davis (Tutu), Brand X, Roy Hargrove's Rh Factor for example. I'm not saying that some of your choices aren't bad, but there are Artists & albums missing, that if you're making a list like this they should be added.

M.O.- "they know what they're doing." Truth.

The first side of Ommadawn is the first example of World Music.

hi Mishrazz, what i see , otherwise a very nice list is that the band Casiopea with LPs Mint Jam and Thunder Live (otherwise several good LPs are never in your list with regard to Jazz Fusion albums. Do you not know Casiopea or am I the only one who follows you who likes this band ? greetings Gerard

It would be nice if you had tied the artist together with the albums you presentedn i.e. Jean Luc Ponty & George Duke played with Frank Zappa and so on. It would give the novice collectors a wider scope of of the genre. Great list.

Hailll matt pike

Eloy is amazing, but check the tides return for ever

You should look at Italy also. There were some fantastic prog bands in the seventies from Italy.

Okay. I don't get it. I appreciate the inclusion of In a Silent Way. And agree with many of your selections. But where is Bitches Brew!? Glaring and dreadful omission! (For that matter, you could include Jack Johnson on here as well.)

Thanks for giving Place of Skulls some love in your background music! Love those guys! Nice collection, by the way! Cheers!

The album you selected by Jukka ! Just heard some of that and wow what an amazing guitar player and band . The drummer is really tight and the whole band . He is from Finland ?

Great selection of albums, Barefoot boy is ? Never heard it but always enjoy Larry .

🎚️🎵

Tony Williams (Believe It)..Pat Martino (Joyous Lake)..Mingo Lewis (Flight Never Ending). Alphonso Johnson (Spellbound)..David Sancious (Forest Of Feelings)..Narada Michael Walden (Garden of Lovelight)..Passport (Cross Collateral)

Appreciate your list. Never heard Belonging described as fusion. Been a favorite for many years.

Is Pat Metheny / Lyle Mays too famous or commercially successful to be respected as a 'real' jazz musician? I would include one or two of their album (i.e., Offramp, First Circle, As Falls Wichita So Falls Wichita Falls, Rejoicing...etc).

Great list, but there are at least 50 more that many of us could name. Tony Williams lifetime, Return to Forever, Holdsworth stuff, Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny group stuff, Wayne Shorter stuff and more.

thanks for the list

Great selection!

A lot of good picks there, of course everyones list is different. I would have included michal urbaniak and david sancious for sure.

Billy Cobhm TOTAL ECLIPSE IS ON A DIFFERENT LEVEL .

Great List Mishrazz. I have some of the same groups on mine but different recordings. Weather Report-8:30. (fantastic live music) Santana-Moonflower (live), George Duke-Feel (simply Outstanding). Mahavishnu Orchestra-Between Nothingness and Eternity (live), JohnLuc Ponty-Open Mind, Klaus Doldingers -Jubilee (great Live sound), Return to Forever-Romantic Warrior, Billy Cobham-Spectrum and the Zawinul Syndicate-World Tour (Live) LONG LIVE JAZZ FUSION!

Wonderful vinyl collection, something to be proud of. Thank you.

Excellent set. Couple of new names for me which is great. In exchange try Ian Carr and his Nucleus early works. He's battling with Miles Davis who actually invented Fusion )). Of course Alphonse Mouzon early pieces especially Mind Transplant. Jaco Pastorius first solo album. Jan Hammer "Like Children" and Passport Klaus Doldinger up to 80s )) thank you again for the selection.

Nice to see early Weather Report. As great as Jaco was the pre-Jaco band might’ve been better.

Wow, it's so refreshing to see other bands than the main prog bands on this list! 'You' by Gong was a complete surprise but it's a wonderful album!!

Camel amazing

Elegant Gypsy is easily one of the best recorded albums Ever!!

1. Mahavishnu Orchestra 2. Weather Report 3. Return To Forever

Brilliant collection! I would suggest for your ears some music by Renaissance, Moody Blues, Gryphon, Zappa, Mahavishnu, Return to Forever and PFM. Yours included many favorites, like Selling England, Gong, Strawbs, VDGG, Camel and Caravan. ALso suggest to you the poor man's Moody Blues, "Barclay James Harvest".

I like the East Coast more than West, but 2 of my favs gangsta's are: CMW: "Music to drive by" (1992) & Too Short: "Short dogs in the house" (1990)

Gentle giant ....10 The yes álbum ...9 The lamb lies down on Broadway..8 Thick as a brick ...7 Tarkus ...6 Foxtrot ...5 Las alturas de macchu Picchu...4 Close to the edge ..3 Selling England bye the pound..2 In the court of the crimson king..1

Here's mine: L.A. Express featuring Tom Scott, Man-Child by Herbie Hancock, Turn This Mutha' Out by Idris Muhammad, Tropea by John Tropea, That is Why You're Overweight by Eddie Harris, Sun Goddess by Ramsey Lewis, Black Market by Weather Report, Giants by Giants, Soft Space by Jeff Lorber Fusion, Nexus by Gene Harris, We Got A Good Thing Going by Hank Crawford, Three by Bob James, A Secret Place by Grover Washington Jr., Love Approach by Tom Browne. Black Byrd by Donald Byrd.

It goes without say that these are 25 of the finest fusion albums ever made, if not just finest albums. To anyone reading this comment, please do yourself a favor: Find a hard copy (any format) of Rivers Of Memory by Jessica Williams (RIP). She plays acoustic and electric pianos, organ, synth and celeste. For some reason, RUclips uploads from that album have a much slower playback speed
