He has some great 60's albums as well but his distinct style or groove shines the most from about 1969 throughout the 70's where he mostly lived and recorded in Europe/Germany (and Japan): The Call - a one off of sorts. But fantastic. On el-piano accompanied by Jimmy Jackson (Embryo), Fred Braceful (Et Cetera Ex-Magma) and Eberhard Weber. Embryo has recorded their own version on Stieg Aus. Atleast five of these are among my most treasured jazz-albums - or albums: Number Nineteen Up Popped the Devil First Encounter The Whirling Dervish Tokyo Bound Set Me Free Black Glory Free at Last

I'll give it a go.
The Beatles U2 Led Zeppelin The Who REM The Doors (although much of their early stuff could be considered proto) Pearl Jam Soundgarden Alice in Chains Styx (kind of borderline prog imo) Others also but that's all I can think of for now. |

Compulsion is great. Haven't heard any Mal Waldron though, any recommendations?

In no particular order:
The Pop Group Nurse With Wound Einsturzende Neubauten Meredith Monk Joanna Newsom Don Cherry Sun Ra Dollar Brand Lights in a Fat City / Trance Mission (two separate groups technically, sue me) Esoteric Honorable mentions to Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders, who I mainly left out because they'd already been mentioned.

Both are great IMO, and everything he put out on Blue Note pretty much essential.
Both times were in London with a big band formation, a year or two apart. For obvious financial reasons he was playing with what amounted to a high-class pick up band that consisted of a lot of the cream of British jazz talent. The first time the band seemed slightly under-rehearsed on what was some very complex material, and consequently a bit ragged, but it was still fascinating. The second time the band were on the nail and it was magical!

You managed to see Andrew two times more than I did. I'm certain it must have been unforgettable as I've never heard anything by him that wasn't intriguing or genuine.

I rarely seem to run across anyone who appreciates Andrew Hill but I applaud your choice! A true original and never less than fascinating. Point of Departure is one my favourite albums in any genre. I only managed to see him live twice, to my regret. Edited by Mascodagama - October 03 2017 at 14:32 |

Like Saper I too will change my mind tomorrow. I've never been one to rate albums I own. In fact writing reviews for PA has been the only time where I've ever had to out a finite verdict on music.
Anyways: Milton Nascimento Pharoah Sanders Fleet Foxes Magazine Sun Ra Stevie Wonder F*ck Buttons Yusef Lateef David Bowie The Future Sound Of London |

I know Morricone is not prog but it's certainly no denying that several prog bands use Morricone's style/elements of weirdness, beauty and unpredictability in some of their songs.
