Great, great entry mate. Well done! I'm at work right now and it makes me want to rush home and listen to all the albums! See if you can get cracking on an Eric Dolphy entry too- a very beautiful cat- even Mingus called him "a saint", and how often did he have good words to say for anyone?
Further recommendation- "Kulu Se Mama"- Trane doing African music as only Trane can do it. Check it out!

maybe ill do one on miles. there are often some musical aspects about his playing that people forget that were the true revolutionary bits.
