Good place to start with The Thing (especially searching for music which could blow you away - physically) is their album "The Bag" from 2009 (BTW engineered by Steve Albini) You can hear all album here: Not so familiar with Ken Vandermark all albums, know mostly his early works. BTW you can have The Thing and Vandermark "two in one" both on one album of the same name: You can listen all album here: Edited by snobb - 13 Feb 2013 at 1:34am |

@ Snobb: I've heard of The Thing but haven't had a chance to investigate past that. Any cds you recommend to start?
That Vandermark/Love Duo was pretty sweet too...especially the early part with both of them going full throttle. The only Vandermark I've heard was The Vandermark 5 which didn't foliate my bananas, if you catch my drift. Any recommendations here? |

^ Ahh. Well perhaps for the best as SS albums seem to be all sorts of out of print. I did find Ask The Ages on youtube, and while excellent, definitely not in the spirit of this thread.
I do need to go though all my Sun Ra again. I was quite a SR kick a couple of years ago. I actually bought LAM after becoming aware of it via your review. Unfortunately that was near the end of my SR kick and I never did actually listen to it. Will remedy soon... |

Probably Sharrock's most intense work is with Last Exit, his albums can be sort of inconsistent.
"Atlantis" features some of Sun Ra's most intense electronic keyboard work, there is some of that on "Live at Montreaux" too. I have reviews up for both albums. "Montreaux" has everything from Duke Ellington played weird to pure high volume noise on the synthesizer and electric keyboards.

Ahh yes... Last Exit. I do have an album by them (Headfirst Into The Flames) I should dig it out and give it another listen. Thanks for the tip. Also, what Sonny Sharrock albums would you recommend? (I've explored exactly zero of what he has done solo) |

I wasn't even aware of the first thing existing. That sounds absolutely wonderful. I'll certainly investigate. Sun Ra I am also familiar with. I should go through more things that I have by him. That saxophone did get pretty screechy at times. EDIT: Just so I don't have four posts in a row...thanks snobb. I'll get to those vids in due time.

Hello,
A quick history of my experience with free/avant/out jazz: The first album of it's ilk that I"ve bought was Peter Brotzmann's Machine Gun. I loved the way it felt like the music was a brick hitting me in the face 17 times a minute. So much sound. Unfortunately, I fear this has also spoiled me. No other free/etc jazz album has filled me with such feelings and ultimately I feel disappointed. Even other Brotzmann works I've heard, don't measure up in terms of visceral intensity. Thus... I do quite like free jazz...but wish I knew more of it that was aggressive, in your face, destruction via sound type stuff. I can enjoy the quieter, more introspective side of free jazz...but what I really like and look for in free jazz is the opposite. So I turn my eyes to you, all knowing, jazz loving populace of JMA. What can you recommend for me in terms of aggressive (Visceral, fiery, noisy, eardrum destroying) free jazz? (basically, in the Machine Gun Spirit) (Note: I have explored the sub a bit and am familiar with some of the big guns [like Ayler's Spiritual Unity and Coltrane's noisier side]. However, please recommend anything...even if it seems obvious.) Many thanks. |
