Well i'seen that there is a genre of jazz/rock-fusion in the list of genres so i'll recomend some stuff that are Very good so that they might be in the artist list for everyone to know.

Cab - A fusion trio (bass/guitar-synth/drums) by acclaimed musicians like Bunny brunnel - Bass Dennis Chambers - Drums Tony Mcalpine - Guitar/synth they have 3 albums it's rather simple kind of fusion focused on improvisations over varius riffs and chord changes.they have won grammy awards for their work.

Greg Howe - 3 albums.....Introspect,Hyperacuity, Extraction My Personal Fav. of the fusion genre

Dave Weckl Band all the stuff he made with them....

Bela Fleck & the Flecktones Originaly a trio Bass/Banjo!!/drums and then they added some sax and steel drums.their music is a mix of bluegrass/jazz/ethnic/fusion/ feat. the maybe best Bass player today Victor Wooten on bass.

I recomend these cause i believe that they are of the best in fusion genre .otherwise i wouldn't bother u with something.

Check em out!!!! Thanx for the time.

Missed your original mail but now catching up.

We're working of adding some of the big names of jazz rock at the moment, Jan Hammer, Jerry Goodman, John Abercrombie and Pat Metheny (and group) added recently - probably  John McLaughlin next. Wouldn't argue will your proposals - CAB has been up before (hey you missed Brian Auger - but so did the so called best Hammond player poll!!). Have 3 or 4 Greg Howe albums myself,  but think several other guitarists should be in  before him - unless you would like to put  the details together for submission - this is the quick route in). Alas the 3 albums heard of the  Dave Weckl Band have  never fired me up, although one of those major session drummers in the world  - I prefer Gary Husband, Simon Phillips, Chad Wackermann and Vinnie Colaiuta . Bela Fleck & The Flecktone, I would support although at least one collaborator here is less enthusiastic.

Always keen to discuss jazz rock fusion.
