^ I still have to listen to it. I have a Naked City record at home somewhere, but I remember only good music from him.

Again, another classic. I got it on vinyl as a present for my birthday and though I know this record inside-out it still is a pleasure.

If this album was a man and could look back it'd surely see the future.

^ now that was a visionary guy

Another visionary guy. Different approach, different mindset.

And a documentary, if you want to know him better:

Enter Don Cherry.
One of the pioneer of the 'new thing', one that was there when it all happens. Instead of going with his works with Ornette Coleman (which you should listen to anyway), let's explore some of its solo works.

This is one of those records you must experience in your room, only you and the music, a spiritual trip on the other side.

some good shit Gekko, thanks, really interesting and all of them unfamiliar names. i'll counter all this free-jazz with some older shit someday :)

Everybody knows Miles. Not many love this record as much as I do.

Everybody knows John Coltrane. Not many love this record as much as I do.

Meeting the blues and jazz threads, here's some old-school bluesy as hell jazz.

^ this sounds like it has been sampled by St Germain. cool shit, thanks :)

^ St. Germanin samples a lot of stuff, though I don't think I've heard Montgomery licks in his albums. I might be wrong though.

^ not sure at all, but just saying that if he hasnt sampled it, maybe he should :)

Mingus, can't live without his music. This may be my favorite Mingus's tune. It sure comes from my favorite Mingus's record.

^ Gutterslob's gonna roast your ass for that ;)

Archie Shepp doesn't always please my ears, but with CORAL ROCK he surely does.

Yeah, but it turned into one of those situations when you can resist everything but temptation ;) I hope he will do it in a kinky way though, with this as a soundtrack;

^ Got it on dvd. Terrific show.

Sometimes I feel like contemporary jazz missed a great chance not to follow the South America sounds early masters like Davis and Mingus understood. Gato Barbieri should be mandatory, anyway.
