It has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. I love it.

As a quick reference, should I check Allmusic.com for the artists mentioned, and just check out all their 4-5 star rated albums? Or would that not be a good route to take?

Seriously, Mile Davis'
Bitches Brew is far and away the best fusion album ever recorded and pretty close to being the only album from the sub-genre really worth owning. Check it out. You'll be happy you did.
I still go through various websites "top 100 jazz albums" lists. Like most things of that nature there's usually some stuff that's grossly overrated, but it is a great way to feel out the genre expecially considering how huge it is.
