I can understand that. The album I listed is on the one hand good but on the other hand kind of just clutter.

Now listening:

Sonny Rollins: Holding The Stage: Road Shows, Vol. 4

Good but suffers from an overly smooth production/recording style.

Iconili
Quintais

I don't know what else to say other than this is fantastic. Brazilian blend of fusion, jazz-prog, samba, and a whole mess of others. Electric album.

Don Cherry
Relativity Suite

Great world music mixed with avant-garde jazz.

Mtume
Rebirth Cycle

Pretty much essential spiritual jazz listening. Putting this on directly after Alice Coltrane's Universal Consciousness might make one ascend to the plateau of enlightenment. For real. It does have a few funky tracks though.

I’ve never heard this but it’s on YouTube, thankfully.

You got this on vinyl or what?

I will eventually. Tough one to find in the wild and they go for like $100+ online.

I buy expensive records. I'll wait on this one though. It'll probably roll through the shop one day.

Legendary live performance with Arthur Doyle and Hugh Glover. Chaos. Scatting vocals. Counting aloud. Screeching. Pounding. Wailing. Lunacy.

Rare ass record too. Graves is wild.

The Keith Tippett Group
Dedicated to You, But You Weren't Listening

Fantastically entertaining fusion/free/avant-garde jazz rock record.

^ "Fantastically entertaining" - right you are! I love this record and Keith Tippett's work in general. Title is a nod to Soft Machine's "Dedicated To You..." (which was a nod to Coltrane's "Dedicated To You"). The legendary Robert Wyatt on drums here, along with Brian Springs and Phil Howard (who later replaced Wyatt in Soft Machine).
