    very beautiful but can I suggest a few? Charlie Parker, Louis Armstrong, Lester Young (wonderful), Ornette Coleman. Bye

    Ornette Coleman would be needed.

    ..I know.. it’s just that I have little Ornette and also Parker.. I need to fill the gap as soon as possible.

    As for Coleman, I doubt it will upset you if you like Out To Lunch. I also believe that A Shape of Jazz to Come is an excellent and very famous record, so I doubt you don’t know it. "Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation" is also beautiful, very dadaist, a manifesto of Free Jazz. But I suppose you know that one as well.

    I would reverse the order of the podium, but I agree on the names, at least for what I know and understand about jazz (which is very little :D). I particularly love A Love Supreme, the album that made me appreciate jazz.

    I share Felo's advice on Coleman's "Free Jazz." An absolute milestone of Free Jazz, a masterpiece of the highest caliber.

    ..thank you for the advice.. "A Shape of Jazz to Come" I’ve heard mentioned so many times but I don't know it.. I know it's inexcusable.. one of these days I’ll go buy it..

    If you like Out To Lunch, you must like this. Eric Dolphy also plays in Free Jazz.

    Braxton fits perfectly into this ranking: For Alto, 3 Compositions of New Jazz, or the most extreme of all, Saxophone Improvisations, Series F.

      I don't have anything by Braxton... I'll listen... thanks for the advice.

    Anyway, even though this ranking is very limited, it was useful for me to discover Charles Mingus...
