Top far-out free jazz avant-garde albums

[spekkola]

I think that many of you are already familiar with Thurston Moore's article TOP TEN FROM THE FREE JAZZ UNDERGROUND? http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/1392/FreeJazz.html

There is a nice naughty list of great albums. Freedom, fire, fury, love... What about your favorities from this interesting area?

Some records and names came to my mind:
DAVE BURRELL - Echo
RASHIED ALI and FRANK LOWE - Duo Exchange
FRANK LOWE - Black Beings
JOHN COLTRANE - The Olatunji Concert
ALBERT AYLER
ALAN SILVA
CECIL TAYLOR
GATO BARBIERI (60's)
ALAN SHORTER
MATS GUSTAFSSON

uh, list is too long.

I'm currently listening to Cecil Taylor's "Live in the Black Forest."

Damn, the paint is coming off the walls. . .

This is a list of records released recently by a Japanese company called Universal. Forced Exposure carries some of them for a pretty high $$.
