I would have thought of the 90s as the bleakest time for fusion, when grunge seemed to kill any love for virtuosity. But looking back, there was a lot of really solid records. Fusion is kind of the musical cockroach, which can survive any catastrophe by hiding under the rocks.

Oh, the 80's was definitely the low point for fusion. Even a lot of the records that are good, don't particularly sound good.

Maybe it was, but was the decade that I discovered fusion, so a lot of fond memories of Holdsy, TT, Kazumi, Scofield, Steps Ahead. It's the decade that fusion outgrew it's 70s bellbottoms & mustache. A lot of the sound thing is how stuff was mastered digitally. The remastered stuff sounds better. Some of it still sounds bad if it's got e-drums & too many time based effects all over it. TT & Holdsy sound good.
