ok this is the final suggestion from me and then i take a month break his solo artist would fit both JMA and PA i think atleast AllMusic labels one of his albums progressive jazz, progressive rock and this album is really interesting and the guitarist/composer is a an interesting one http://www.allmusic.com/album/strange-news-from-mars-r1243701" rel="nofollow - http://www.allmusic.com/album/strange-news-from-mars-r1243701 http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-jimmy-carl-black-story-r1446768" rel="nofollow - http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-jimmy-carl-black-story-r1446768 space jazz in fine form and shape  -------------

it is basicly for these two album he should be considered, as they feature Zappa band, are concept albuma and fearly ambitious and covers alot of styles within and outside of jazz, with virtiouse playing and delicate instrumentation the rest of the albums are more aucustuc jazz, fusion, pop jazz and folk/jazz related, but the two space rock/jazz albums should be the focuspoint of the evaluation, the albums should be listen to in a whole, they are similar to Gong, and other jazzy space bands, with some avant garde leanings   -------------

This has a new age (and what's worse) feel to it. Not prog (at present).
(Take a much deserved break, aginor.)

I feal after listening to the two albums i pointed toward quit comfortable that they should be listen to and evaluated by propper members of jazz fusion sub, this is not new age though it shares similaritys but that is like saying Flying Teapot is new age, this is pure progressice rock or more so in the vein of jazz fusion and this should not be lightheartidly be rejected this two albums are a solid and will be seen as a good addition to the fusion section two albums out of five that are jazz fusion , consist of the Mothers of Invention band members is ebough for me to call it both prog RELATED and jazz fusion with psych elements (space rock) -------------
