Modern Fusion - worth a Listen - Aaron Parks

For those of you that listened to Fusion back in the 70's and 80's and maybe have migrated to more traditional jazz,
here is an Artist / Album I stumbled on in Tidal.

Aaron Parks - Little Big. 

I like it a lot - maybe you will too.

Here’s a new one

Jazz Sabbath (Just released) 

Not quite Fusion not quite pure Jazz.
Instrumental versions of Black Sabbath songs as I understand it.

Strange story behind it with a twist too. Worth a listen for sure.

Another good recording with Aaron Parks is 2018's "Ask for Chaos" by Gilad Hekselman. Parks plays on 5 of the 10 cuts. Obvious Holdsworth fan.

Brand new. Less Fusion, more Sunday morning, but still real good.
