Top Avant/Free Jazz/Free Improv Solo Recordings

Since we are asking for favorites here is another one to consider. And to make this more difficult try to keep it to one per musician. And you're not limited to 10. Go with what you want to list. It might help others discover recordings.

Also, it doesn't matter what the instrument happens to be.


It’s only a coincidence that I was listening to Steve Lacy’s Clinkers when I thought of this thread. Yes I know, but that’s my story and I am sticking to it.

I will have to get back with my list, but you can bet there will be a Braxton, Lacy, Parker, Taylor, McPhee to name a few already.

A group called TRIBE that were based out of Detroit in the 1970's. Stuck on this one.

I must be missing something, but how does a group make a list of solo instrumental recordings?

Sorry satch, but I've decided to keep bringing these guys up until everybody is onboard. That might take a while.

You're talking about Tribe Records, which is not a group. They were more of a collective of musicians along the lines of Chicago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians or (AACM).


In their particular case, they ran a production company and a magazine. They released 9 recordings.

I believe someone put out a Best of Compilation from the 9 recordings.


They put out some good to great music and many of those involved played with some big names as sidemen.

Now that we got that out of the way. Do you have a favorite list of solo instrumantal avant/free jazz/free improv recordings.

Don't have much time, but I felt like adding Roscoe Mitchell's album "Solo 3" that was released 2 months ago; three wonderful disks of solo performances on various instruments...highly recommended.

Here's an old thread, for which it seems even Satchmo caught a case of Sebaitous. Contributions would be much appreciated.

It's not that, I caught a case of Sebaitous, as much as that it didn't seem to get any attention. So....I figured, why bother.

The ESP must not have been functioning then, surely you would've known I'd stumble across it about two years later?
