A couple that lean harder on the rock side of this fence...they are not really perceived as fusion artists (and I know you said no heavy metal), but to me that is what they are doing.

Lie Down for sure. I sense a lot of Weather Report channeling going on.

I only mentioned it because I know fusion has become a style in itself.
But like you pointed out, it's really more of an attitude that incorporates those 3 elements, and of course fusing different styles as the name implies. My Legacy

Many don't realize what Andy Summers can do outside of The Police.
I just happen to have his tribute to Thelonious Monk, Green Chimneys here on my desk.

Great player, great tracks.
Michael Landau is a very good choice to continue the "connections" game. To take it full circle, on the back wall you can see a flyer for the band that started this thread (Chris Poland's Ohm). "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

Another musical conglomerate that also used The Baked Potato as an L.A. base was The Jazz Ministry. "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

Aah St. Nick, we'd prefer to have it referred to as tempered lunacy.

Yeah, The Baked Potatoe was a venue name which i occasionally saw mentioned in the jazz-rock/fusion area, in magazine articles, during interviews or other media outlets. One of the first times i was hipped to that name was seeing a Japanese vinyl copy of keyboardist Greg Mathieson ("Live At The Baked Potatoe"). At the time i would leave that copy for another time because the Japanese imported vinyl was rather high, but eventually when i planned to buy it, it was gone already . Luckily a few years later i could purchase a copy on eBay .
Speaking of Steve Lukather, at one moment during that live recording of Los Lobotomys he introduces the band, such as "...On saxophones and women's underware...Brandon Fields!..."
The Japanese edition of that live recording was released on David "The Creatchy" Garfield's Creatchy label. Keyboardist David has been doing some Musical Direction for George Benson in recent years.
Thanks again TheAudience and paligap for both your feedback | |
