influences. The jazz fusion genre became popular in the early '70s, meshing bebop, cool, modal and free jazz with psychedelic rock. Miles Davis was a major pioneer in the style on his albums ''In a Silent Way'', ''Bitches Brew'', and ''A Tribute to Jack Johnson'', and many of the musicians who played on those records formed influential bands of their own.
