It is impossible to have a definitive top 10, as it might change each day.
But I can certainly post a list of 10 favourite albums, wich I keep playing with utmost enhousiasm and pleasure. Alice Coltrane - Journey into Satchidananda John Coltrane - Crescent Wayne Shorter - Adam's Apple Clifford Jordan - Glass Bead Games (!!!) Eric Dolphy - Out There Lee Morgan - Search for the New Land McCoy Tyner - Expansions Maisha - There's a Place Pharoah Sanders - Karma Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Ugetsu Non-Jazz: Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick Allman Brothers Band - Brothers and Sisters Gov't Mule - First Album / Dose / Life Before Insanity Barclay James Harvest - Octoberon and Once Again Camel - Snow Goose Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced Moody Blues - Seventh Sojourn

Nice list, I would imagine mine has changed a bit from the one I listed years ago.

Without postulating that these albums are "the greatest" in every sense:
Third Stream-wise:
For some reason, I have always respected, but never liked Miles Davis, John Coltrane or Mahavishnu Orchestra.

Here is my list; although it does vary slightly with time, these albums are pretty much it for me:
1. Saxophone Colossus (Sonny Rollins) 2. Speak No Evil (Wayne Shorter) 3. In 'n Out (Joe Henderson) 4. Kind of Blue (Miles Davis) 5. Adam's Apple (Wayne Shorter) 6. Anniversary (Stan Getz) 7. Don Cherry - Featuring Ornette Coleman and Steve Lacy (Don Cherry) 8. Pilgrimage (Michael Brecker) 9. E.S.P. (Miles Davis Quintet) 10. 1 + 1 (Herbie Hancock & Wayne Shorter) If I had to include more contemporary albums, I'd certainly mention Kurt Rosenwinkel's 'Chords (Live at the Village Vanguard)', and 'Kids (Live at Dizzy's)' with Joe Lovano and Hank Jones. Both fantastic in very different ways. Cheers, Carlo. Edited by carlomuscat - 29 Nov 2014 at 4:52am |

At their live shows, the 70s version of Crimson was mostly a jazz-rock jam band.

^ I mean there are jazz influences ... it's JRF, isn't it? I know that's a pretty stupid thing I said back there.

^ Fixed. I guess your thought was "this thread is not called 'Your favorite jazz-rock/fusion albums' ".
