Someone told me he heard John McLaughlin sing "A Love Supreme" and
that it was a terrible experience.

I also heard Jaco Pastorius sing some blues. Be glad if you didn't.

Sun Ra did some awful vocals.

I think the list of good fusion vocals would be pretty short. It
wasn't a branch of jazz that attracted many great singers.

Good point.
Fusion is almost exclusively instrumental. Vocals, when they exist,
tend to be ornamental. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not a genre
likely to attract great singers.
I agree with the previous poster, BTW, that Frank Gambale is an
incredible player. I love his cover of "So What."

Tony Williams with his band Lifetime. Wonderful drummer, bad singer.

My vote goes to Jeff Berlin's vocals on Bruford's "Gradually Going
Tornado". Great album, atrocious vocals.

What's truly sad is remembering the Return to Forever line-up just
before Musicmagic. What were Chick Corea and Stanley Clarke thinking,
tossing Lenny White and Al Dimeola out of the band, just because they
weren't into scientology.
Madness.

Well, Scientology is madness, as Clarke eventually figured out. Bill
Connors quit the band because of Corea's Scientology-based leadership,
as well. Clarke has said that White and DiMeola were arguing with
Corea over money, not religion, but, given the tithing demands of
Scientology, those things may have been linked.
