I have heard BrandX and liked them very much!  We listened to that and other great stuff on an incredible dorm system @ RIT (SAE amp, DB systems pre, and LS3/5A clones).  Those were the days (late 70s).  Interesting also the mention of Zappa.  I though overnight sensation was very much fusion.

I own a few Brand X records, good stuff! There can be no doubt that Zappa was a Fusion pioneer. For me, the Zappa 'Fusion' trifecta will always be Hot Rats, Wakajawaka, & The Grand Wazoo!

If you look at the names of his albums and songs, you won't wonder why he named his kids as he did. I wonder how Dweezil survived high school. Nowadays the family fights like cats and dogs over the Zappa name, very sad.

I've been listening to Keith Jarrett's Standards, Volume 1 with Peacock and DeJohnette. Absolutely sublime. Man oh man oh man. They are good.

the standards albums are great! These were the first Jarrett albums I got into (late arrival ton the 70s quartets and the solo stuff).

The NativeDSD 128 stereo version. This doesn't suck.

I may have bought Koln first, but I love Standards 1 and 2.
 
Just picked up Last Dance - Jarrett and Haden on Hi-Rez last week.  Very nice.  And by the way, the 96/24 download of the Koln Concert struck me as a definite improvement over my old CD.

I'll check out the 24/96 Koln download out one of these days (still have much of this stuff, including many of the Standards albums, on vinyl).

He is positively out there ... I have to admit it's a little too far for me.

I think I have exactly one track by him - on a Richard Thompson compilation as part of French, Frith, Kaiser, Thompson.
