The style of jazz music that combined traditional jazz concepts with rock, R&B, and funk is known as jazz fusion. This genre emerged in the late 1960s and 1970s, characterized by its incorporation of electric instruments and complex rhythms. Prominent artists in this genre include Miles Davis, Weather Report, and Chick Corea. Jazz fusion seeks to blend the improvisational elements of jazz with the energy and accessibility of rock and funk.
Miles Davis is generally considered the forerunner of fusion jazz, which combined jazz instrumentation with rock's electric instruments. His "electric era" began in 1968, and his first fusion album, "In a Silent Way," was released in 1969. A British group called Soft Machine also began developing fusion jazz around the same period. Their second album, "Volume II," features lengthy jazz improvisations played loudly on electric instruments. Live recordings of the group playing these pieces live before the release of their second album arguably makes them the first jazz fusion group.
The term for a combination of jazz and rock is called "fusion."
