Really good album this, nice to see it place.

Great poll, there's already more than ten albums I need to check out for the first time. Can't believe I slept on that Dolphy album. I'm thinking this early part is the most interesting because later we'll get to the more widely known/canon stuff.

The bobbi humphrey stuff is what I was wondering about earlier re fusion

Always thought of this as ILM's fave Ayler

Jobim's Stone Flower is wonderful, If you dont know it check it out, Probably my favorite bossanova album. its CTI, so there is definitely a 70s smoothness factor in the arrangements, but it is an excellent collection of tunes. with some really suprising arrangements/ production choices too.

damn forgot to tag the pic, can a mod fix that please?

YAY. Not her best album, but worth it for 'Om Supreme' alone. That song is so unlike anything else she ever did and it's just so perfectly 70s.

Stone Flower is the second album I downloaded because of this thread. Apparently, I am mellowing out in my old age.

you're not gonna become one of those mellowed out jazz bores are you?

Ha, let me light this cigar, then I'll tell you.

Fun exercise: For each piece on Ballads, listen to a performance by a canonized vocalist first, then play the Bailey version. So far, I think "Body and Soul" might work best in terms of showing the most connection between the original tune and the out improvisation.
