Now c'mon here we can't forget about one of the top jazz guitarists can we??

I was at the Warfield Theater when Friday Night was recorded in Dec. 1980

Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, and Paco De Lucia........this concert would have blown you away

I did not want to leave

Klaus Schulze
Al Di Meola
Michael Shrieve

Just that I am not that much into jazz fusion stuff, I'll have to listen to some of the music over the weekend and decide if I go.

Well, some of Jean-Luc Ponty's material is mostly just him and his synths (INDIVIDUAL CHOICE, OPEN MIND, LIFE ENIGMA) with a few guests here and there (George Duke, for one). His post-Zappa releases are some great progressive-rock instrumentals and had the incredible Alan Zavod on keys and synths. (IMHO, any musician that played with Zappa was incredible; Frank didn't hire no-talent chumps that just happened to be photogenic!) The jazz is never far from the surface with JLP's music but this is a good thing.
