Not how the Complete Go Sessions double CD set is  being packaged and publicised by Raven Records at the moment: jazz fusion, electronica,  rock, R'n'B and space rock. And I think they are right.

 

Retrovertigo I seriously believe your description is well off target.

I'm still going to call it a World Fusion release, I didn't say it wasn't prog.

How can you add one album from Yamashta's discography without the rest - and these albums always were Stomu Yamashta's projects, pulling in others who ended up with equal billing?

World fusion.....? Still thinking about that. Go : no, Red Buddah Theatre: yes, Freedom Is Frightening: probably not. BTW how do you rate the great Japanese jazz guitarist, Kazumi Watanbe, as world fusion or jazz rock fusion? Shakti is world jazz fusion, Jonas Hellborg's Icon is world jazz fusion, but Go brings little of traditional Japanese music to make it "World" music
