Can someone recommend me an artist or album that's similar to Acoustic Ladyland? I already know Fire! Orchestra is somewhat similar in case someone wanted to rec them.

That's a great album (and slightly less great film). I'm a huge Zappa head (named my dog after him) already, so does anything else come to mind?

Damn. Knowing everything sucks sometimes.

Yes and they're all great. miRthkon's my favourite of the bunch probably, with Too Many Zooz taking second.

I won't pretend to know much about Jazz but this album sounds amazing to me. Best new jazz album I have heard in a long time.

Kamasi Washington - The Epic

Mavis Staples - Down In Mississippi

Good track from an even better album:

Koko Taylor -I Got What It Takes
