That inspired me to spend a glorious hour trawling through a page of Sun Ra image search results.

There are some records on him 'reading poetry' and 'delivering a lecture' up recently at ubu.com.

One of my favourite recordings is John Cage meets Sun Ra.

Modeski, Martin & Wood remind of 60's and 70's, To me I can hear traces of things like Miles runs the VooDoo down.

But I really enjoy MM & W.

Jeri Brown "A Timeless Place"
Jimmy Rowles
Eric Von Essen

Charlie Parker "The Charlie Parker Story"
Utterly compelling despite consisting of only 5 master takes with 11 alternate takes, breakdowns and rejects.

Paul Bley "Notes on Ornette"

Georg Graewe "Saturn Cycle"
Ernst Reijseger
Gerry Hemingway
One of the all-time great piano trios.
