Fusion - Any Recommendations?


I really love this Italian 70's progressive group called AREA that are more like avant-garde fusion than anything else. Who knows a little about fusion and can recommend some classic must-haves?

If your talking Jazz fusion..I would suggest any and all of the "Fourplay" cds...Great group........
I'll second Billy Cobham - all of his
Also some of my favorites:
- Jan Hammer - "First Seven Days"
- Brand X (Their first, all of them)
- Jack Lancaster/Robin Lumley - "Marscape"
- Steve Kahn - "Casa Loco"
- Tunnels (descended from Brand X) - "Painted Rock", "Progressivity"
- Return to Forever - Romantic Warrior
- Stanley Clark - "Stanley Clark", "If this Bass Could Talk"
