The Fusion Reactor #62 - Let's Dance

After last week's torture I thought you might need something easier this week. I sure did. This time I thought it would be nice to do some "dance numbers." If you're into the whole 7/8 polka or 5/4 mambo thing, this one is for you.

In actuality, I don't see how a lot of these could be easily danced to. But that's ok! All I was going for was the name. I was also able to fit in three pairs of dances from three of my fusion favorites - Mahavishnu Orchestra, Return to Forever, and Passport. The Fusion Epic was Miles Davis, and the classic jazz cut was John Coltrane and Don Cherry, with their version of Bemsha Swing. That's the only one that doesn't specifically have "dance" in the title, but you know, it's a kind of a dance, so it all works out.
