In the 197s, Fusion music gradually developed. Its original definition was actually a kind of music that combined jazz improvisation and rock rhythm. However, with the gradual prosperity of pop music, rhythm and blues and various music forms in the world music scene, Fusion music borrowed these music styles. The fusion music we are familiar with now, In fact, it has become a kind of mixed music with the name of jazz.
Since the late 196s, the term Fuson has been used arbitrarily, which is almost meaningless. The original definition of Fusion is the best: jazz improvisation is mixed with the power and rhythm of rock. Until the left in 1967, the world of jazz and rock began to split completely. But when rock began to be more creative and its musical skills were improved, And when some jazz became tired of heavy British jazz and they no longer wanted to play avant-garde music in the strict sense, two different types of nouns began to exchange ideas and occasionally joined forces. In the early 197 s, Fusion had its own independent characteristics of creative jazz style (although it was blamed by many purists), and like Return to Forever, The weather report, the Maha Vishnu Orchestral, Miles Davis and other major and diverse bands played Fusion with high quality, which mixed the best jazz and rock. Unfortunately, when it began to focus on commercial value and rock began to decline artistically in the mid-197s, most of the bands advertised as Fusion actually blended jazz, laid-back pop and light R&; B. To some extent, Fusion can't follow the original road, although it still exists in bands such as Tribal and Chick Coreas Elektric Band.
