If Fusion is something that winds up being a bunch of chord changes that lead to nowhere and essentially do nothing but confuse the listeners sense of timing, and crescendo after crescendo followed by self indulgent solos that may be very difficult to play , but are even more difficult to listen to ..........then yeah, IMO Fusion sucks. Any type of music that is based on this type of foundation(which IMO is no foundation at all) sucks
Some of the Beck stuff that was mentioned and Chick Corea/ Stanley Clarke and tons of other stuff I like alot. If it has a groove , I can dig it
If it doesn't, I can't
. For me, this applies to any type of music.
