Folk Jazz is a general term for music that pairs traditional Anglo-American folk music with traditional African-American jazz/ragtime, featuring songs and styles of both traditions. Variations of the concept are "Folk rock", "Blue eyed soul" "Jazz fusion" and others that reflect the substantial interplay of European and African musical traditions in 20th century American music. An example could be Joni Mitchell's "Hejira" album.
