I kind of figured that was the case because while I didn't think that album was that great, I could definitely see how it would turn into the style I like.

Listening to "A Night In Tunesia" right now, didn't care for the first track but the second is pretty good.

Really? That first track is my favorite on the album. It's like pure energy.

Wait, Spotify seems to have two completely different albums by him with essentially the same name

I was listening to this one
A Night in Tunesia

But after listening to this I assume it's what you were referring to
Night in Tunisia
The first track here is much better.

Actually I was talking about neither of those, but the second has the same opening track as the one I was talking about. This is the one I was referring to, the real one. I have no idea what those other two knockoffs are but they make me scared to ever try Spotify.

Was looking for some violin led Free jazz:
Leroy Jenkins - Ai Glatson, pretty intense imo

Billy Bang - Vietnam the Aftermath, not really what I had in mind but still pretty good

Dave Douglas - Five

(^Not one of the best tracks imo but the only one I could find on YT)
Another album I found on my search for violin based free jazz. The band leader, Dave Douglas, is a trumpeter but on this record he plays with a string trio(violin,cello,bass) and a drummer. The group seems to function more as an equal collaboration, meaning there are more than enough violin leads and solo's to keep me happy(courtesy of violinist Mark Feldman). This album is all over the place(a good thing), from cacophony, to bizzaro world swing and bop, to a "late-night on a street corner under a lamppost" almost-solo trumpet pieces. I'm especially in love with the 42 second opening track "Invasive Procedure" which is probably the closest thing to a Converge/DEP track that a jazz group of this makeup will ever come.

The version on the real one is actually the second track on the first one I was listening to(the first track on the second is a different version from the real one)if that makes any sense. So that means the track I was saying I liked in the first place was the same one you were upset i didn't like

Damn Spotify
