Oh yes, definitely Bitches Brew and Live Evil by Miles. Also, if you like the Weather Report, do some research on Jaco Pastorious - legendary bassist for the band. I've been listening to a couple newer jazz bands including performers Skerik, Charlie Hunter and Stanton Moore. They were originally in Garage a Trois, I think and dispersed to do their own thing. Though I'm unsure of the whereabouts of Skerik, Charlie Hunter and Stanton Moore both have their own trios. I am uneducated on the differences between acid jazz and jazz fusion, so I'm not quite sure what to label them, but Outre Mer by Garage a Trio is a great album to start off with just to get a sample of the three. Skerik is an amazing saxophonist. They guy does wonders with air.
Charlie is on the guitar and Stanton is usually on the drums. Hope this gave you a little boost on your jazz mission.
