Why to they get associated together ?
They are totally separate music genres
I love Blues but can't stomach Jazz

Very much agree with you on this. Dont see why they constantly get banded together.

It may be because they both involve improvisation. Both genres often use similar strong structures: head, solo, head, out.

But I kinda agree, the two styles are very different in a lot of ways.
