Jazz Rock is still a vibrant force in the musical world and is played by some of the planet's most talented musicians. Having survived for over 30 years without consistent major media support, the genre still attracts fans and musicians interested in instrumental integrity, improvisation, and a powerful groove. If you're not sure what Jazz Rock music is all about, click on the radio station links below (in bold) and give a listen!!! Jazz Rock has as many definitions and styles as the musicians and fans that play and listen to it. From it's big bang beginning's that featured Miles Davis, Tony William's Lifetime, John McLaughlin's Mahavishnu Orchestra, Joe Zawinul Wayne Shorter's Weather Report, Jazz Rock blew out of the gates in the early 70's. The early success of bands like Chick Corea's Return to Forever opened the door for mass appeal and consequently changed the musical landscape to a different standard. Since then, Jazz Rock wandered around the fringes of Jazz and even Smooth Jazz for many years. Recently, however, there is a new generation of fans and musicians that have embraced the spirit of Jazz Rock for it's various creative capabilities. This is a good place to get to know what's going on in the Jazz Rock community.

Improvision - Setting the New Fusion Standard Jazz Rock Fusion 2007.09.18 CD Studio Abstract Logix City Hall Records Souvik Dutta Alex Machacek - guitars, Matthew Garrison - bass, Jeff Sipe - drums This formidable power trio of Austrian guitarist Alex Machacek, 5-string electric bassist Matthew Garrison and drummer Jeff Sipe is impossibly intense, dripping with staggering virtuosity and fertile ideas and seething with the kind of raucous improvisational abandon that we haven’t seen since the heyday of Tribal Tech. For fans of acknowledged guitar monsters like Allan Holdsworth, Scott Henderson and the late, great Shawn Lane, the opening track of their new album says it all: "There’s A New Sheriff In Town." Machacek’s mind-boggling technique -- blazing speed, uncannily fluid lines and daring intervallic leaps -- is an obvious place to begin in singing the praises of this exciting new triumverate. But beyond the abundance of soloistic fireworks on Improvision provided by both Alex and Matthew, one of the most gifted and creative bassists on the post-Jaco scene, there is also a remarkable depth to the writing here, which comes across on harmonically sophisticated pieces like the atmospheric ballad "Very Sad," the compelling "Shona," the gentle, darkly alluring "To Whom It May Concern" and the gorgeous "Put Me Back To Sleep." Elsewhere, they exercise zen-like restraint on the freewheeling jam "Yoga For Cats, Part 1 and 2," then go for the burn on the aggressively slamming, chops-laden fusion showcase, "Gem1 and Gem2." And the astounding "Matt’s Riff," is a brilliant showcase for Garrison’s 21st century approach to the electric bass guitar. This stuff takes me back to the early ‘70s, to a time when creativity, concept and risk-taking were the watchwords in fusion music.
