Jazz fusion releases, week 42

This week in jazz fusion, new releases and retrospectives highlight global influences and genre-defying collaborations. From a Belgian documentary on Sun Ra’s visionary legacy to Alune Wade’s exploration of African and diasporic connections in 'Family Affair,' the music continues to evolve through cultural dialogue. Visualizers for Pat Metheny and Brad Mehldau’s latest tracks, alongside archival performances by King Crimson and reflections on Ibrahim Maalouf’s sonic innovation, underscore the genre’s enduring depth. Rodrigo Y Gabriela’s candid insights into street performance and Lalah Hathaway’s featured presence complete a diverse and introspective weekly roundup.
