Modern Fusion - worth a Listen - Aaron Parks


For those of you that listened to Fusion back in the 70's and 80's and maybe have migrated to more traditional jazz,
here is an Artist / Album I stumbled on in Tidal.

Aaron Parks - Little Big. 

I like it a lot - maybe you will too.

Another good recording with Aaron Parks is 2018's "Ask for Chaos" by Gilad Hekselman. Parks plays on 5 of the 10 cuts. Obvious Holdsworth fan.

Brand new. Less Fusion, more Sunday morning, but still real good.

Some of you may like " A Comet is Coming".

More Electronic and Sun Ra like than fusion though.



Ghosthouse, that late 80's band was really good. There are 2 or 3 more recordings right around that time you should listen to. 
I really liked all the Wallace Roney, Bill Pierce, Front line and Muligrew Miller was awesome. I THINK I fell in love most with Native Heart, but it has been 20 years since I first heard these Gems, and honestly they run together in my head. Getting old.
