| | Jazz History - Jazz Fusion |
 | | "Fusion" has often been described as the melding of jazz with rock styles, although most fusion music initially drew from the rhythmic and harmonic aspects of soul music, particularly the music of James Brown and Sly Stone. |  | | Miles's earliest experiment with fusion was documented on his 1968 recording Miles In The Sky, with the song "Stuff." Featuring Herbie Hancock on electric piano and Tony Williams playing a funky back beat, "Stuff" illustrated the genesis of this musical style. |  | | Such harmonic material found in soul music was also similar to the modal improvisation developed by Miles Davis, Bill Evans, and John Coltrane in the late 1950s and '60s. |

| | Fusion Arts - Jazz/Fusion Web Resources - fusion so hot it will scorch your ears!!! |
 | | To me, fusion is jazz mixed with rock, that is to say jazz played on electric instruments, perferably with electric guitar being the lead voice since a too-loud distorted guitar is what people associate with rock music. |  | | Fusion's original definition was best: a mixture of jazz improvisation with the power and rhythms of rock, however it may also include a mixture of virtually any style mixed with Jazz including: funk, blues, rock, hip-hop, folk, eastern, African, Cuban, avant-garde, classical, and virtually anything else available to borrow from. |  | | What distinguishes fusion from jazz is the electric element, jazz is played on acoustic instruments. |

| | Ken Burns JAZZ On Fusion |
 | | As fusion progresses, we see that the musicians desire is not to come up with a jazz sensibility and use things from rock and roll, but its to just become a glorified pop musician who can play instrumental music also. |  | | And I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play, the soloists all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again and there's a certain musical virtuosity involved in it. |  | | Then, that was the first music of jazz that was not horn-based. |

| | The Rare Vinyl Network - Black Music :: Jazz Fusion |
 | | Jazz took on a distinctly arranged form in the big bands of the early 1920s through the late 1940s. |  | | The music thrived in urban jazz clubs, where audiences came to listen to inventive soloists rather than dance to their favorite hits. |  | | His Birth Of The Cool nonet recordings of 1949-'50 are the epitome of Cool Jazz lyricism and understatement. |

| | Essential Jazz Fusion |
 | | The first of these included the hit single "Rockit", which was the first hit recording to utilize DJ scratching, and which influenced later DJs such as DJ Qbert and DJ Krush. |  | | Their first album, Mwandishi was fairly straight-ahead free jazz, but the next two, Crossings and Sextant, incorporated the Moog synthesizer work of Dr Patrick Gleeson, and the combination of the band's ambient spacieness, Hancock's Fender Rhodes, and the Moog make these essential listening for anyone interested in the roots of electronica. |  | | The dense, percussion-heavy music heard on this album is very afro-funk/rock centered and remains very controversial to this day among jazz fans. |
