yeah would not rec mahavishnu as an entry point
anyway, whatever. everyone who likes jazz (that isn't only miles davis or coltrane) likes different jazz. try a bunch of shit and see what sticks. really too many musicians to list.

yup. some people like more laid-back Thelonious Monk-y shit while others fuck with Cecil Taylor. just dive in i guess

love mahavishnu, and idk about trapped in the 70s

it sounds like it was made in the 70s and its mclaughlin i guess but i love inner mounting flame

What the hell does "trapped in the 70s" even mean? Jazz fusion is the last big innovation in jazz and has more variations than just jazz rock. If anything fusion is the jazz subgenre with most variety.

Agree hard with Friday on this.

As far as Jazz Fusion Miles Davis stuff goes, I like In A Silent Way a lot more than BB

This album was used as therapy for my when I was in my troubled youth. I could be in a murderous rampage but as soon as someone put this on, i just wanted to sit down and chill.
