Fusion jazz(fusion?jazz-rock?jazz fusion?jazz-rock fusion?jazz-funk),it's a type of music that emerged in the late 1960 s.The style's birth was marked by Miles Davis in the late 1960 s and early 1970 s release of two fusion jazz albums,"In A Silent Way " and "Bitches Brew".Following the commercial success of the music,it enjoyed a decade of growth in the 1970 s,which gradually turned into a convergence of ideas,generalization and many other styles.Early fusion jazz(also known as jazz-rock)pioneered the fusion of two completely different genres of music.The two genres began to overlap in the late 1960 s.This cross-cutting music blend of contrasting styles/genres has been controversial since its inception.These controversies have led to different narratives about fusion jazz.By reading literature,I have sorted out and concluded three kinds of narration about the integration of jazz--textbook narration,time node narration and socio-cultural narration.The three kinds of narrative contains three different point of view,narrative ways and arguments as a result,their respective effectively reveal the different versions with discrete rheological and fusion in the unique appearance of different levels,and the for the following case analysis-the two fusion,Miles Davis representative album "In A Silent Way" and "Bitches Brew",it provides three narrative logic under the support of case description and new interpretation,and combines with the text analysis of music to show the multidirectional contradiction and change of fusion jazz,so as to promote a deeper and comprehensive understanding of fusion jazz.
