Grachan Moncur III- Evolution
Dave Holland- Conference of the Birds
Booker Ervin- The Freedom Book
Bobby Hutcherson- Dialogue
Prince Lasha and sonny Simmons-Firebirds
Wayne Shorter-The All Seeing Eye
I don't know what one I would call the best!. I'm just posting this answer because these albums are similar to Out to Lunch!. Maybe you haven't heard of one or two on this list!.
PS-There is a great radio station that has a weekday program named Out To Lunch!. The show is from 12-3pm easter time!. There is a different host each day of the week!. Sometimes its avant guard, sometimes not!. It is always authentic real jazz!. They very often spin vinyl records because some of the music is that rare!. Very often, they devote the whole 3 hour show to one particular artists music!. Its a jazz lovers home!.
Another PS- On Charles Mingus's birthday, Tuesday April 22, they are doing a birthday broadcast show!. The show is the entire 24 hours of the day!. Its all Mingus music, interviews, stories, anything Mingus!. There are never any commercials on this independent radio station!. What other station does that for its jazz!?

hmm I like "Ascension" by John Coltrane and anything by Charles Mingus especially "Oh Yeah!" "Bitches Brew' by Miles is also cool!. From what I've been exposed to I'd have to go with "Ascension"!. I'll check out "out to lunch"!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

It wasn't until just recently that I replaced an old vinyl with the CD of my favorite avant-garde album of the 60s: Andrew Hill - Point of Departure!.
If you like 'Out to Lunch' (which I do very much also), you're gonna love Hill's music!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
