3. The assassination of martin luther king jr.
On April,4 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. Was in Memphis supporting sanitation workers who had gone on strike. While he was on his balcony, a single snipers bullet severed his spinal cord. 
The whole world was in shock over the assassination, and musicians everywhere were inspired to comment in song, including Luciano Berio who created a whole piece from only using syllables in Luther Kings name.

4. The birth of jazz fusion
Jazz musicians had been struggling for a way to compete with the intense audience appeal of rock music 
Davis took small steps at first—asking his bassist to use electric bass, instead of acoustic, asking his keyboard player to use the electric piano instead of a concert grand, and eventually brought an electric guitarist into the group.
This new music style sounded primarily like mainstream jazz.
Davis recorded the album, In a Silent Way, which was considered to be the first jazz fusion record. This album took several more steps that brought the music closer to rock.
