Fusion Music Video Fest

A ways back I posted links to a couple of great videos of Mahavishnu Orchestra at their peak. Here are a couple of other fusion bands that were active at the same time...

Return to Forever, who are as noted reuniting this summer:

And the always great Weather Report, who will never play again now that Zawinul has left the building...

Black Market (19 minutes!)

And their greatest "hit", Birdland
