fusion jazz recommendations

Excellent suggestions. I would add that Chick Corea has some worthwhile stuff, especially the late and somewhat cheesy album "Romantic Warrior" by Return to Forever (Corea, Stanley Clarke, Al DiMeola, and Lenny White, I think).

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I have several of the titles that have been mentioned, Weather Report, Billy Cobham, Jean Luc Ponty, Herbie, Mahavishnu, Chick Corea, etc. While I really like that stuff I would like to find some newer music. I guess that some people would call what I'm looking for progressive rock. I also have Liquid Tension Experiment, Bozzio- Levin- and Stevens, etc, that I also like, but I was looking for something that would be a middle ground or 80's and early 90's version of fusion. Keep the suggestions coming.

I ditto all those mentioned. Add to the oldies list:

Jaco Pastorius
Spectrum (Billy Cobham)
Return to Forever (Corea & friends)

Here's a good link to others fusion info: http://allmusicguide.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=C299

As for modern day fusion or"acid jazz" as it's called these days, check out Ronny Jordan, Incognito and others at: http://allmusicguide.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=C513

Oops, forgot! Also, add Brand X to the oldies.

Check out ECM label. Hundreds of the best fusion. I like years 75-80. Second on the Brand X. All the Return to Forever stuff and evrything that branched off from each musician
