Swiss Movement was a notable jazz group that rose to prominence in the late 1960s. The ensemble was primarily known for their live album "Swiss Movement: Live at Montreux," which featured the talents of musicians Les McCann and Eddie Harris. Their musical style blended soul, jazz, and blues, and their live performances were characterized by a spontaneous, energetic sound. The band's significant contribution to jazz history is their popularization of soul-jazz, a subgenre that combines elements of jazz improvisation and rhythm and blues.
