Respect to a fellow Sun Ra disciple. Here are some of my personal favourite jazz records for your consideration: . Moondog (1969) by Moondog . Night of The Purple Moon (1970) by Sun Ra . War of The Gods (1973) by Billy Paul . Elementary (1976) by Wah Wah Watson . Death To The Planet (2017) by The Comet Is Coming These are not all proper jazz, but they fall under the umbrella nonetheless. I take it jazz has been slow evolving, and so doesn't sound too alien to what has come out fifty years ago, so it might be a smoother transition than most genres to get into. One person I am looking into is saxophonist Kamasi Washington.
Moondog is excellent, a nice blend of avant-garde and traditional classical. War of The Gods is in my top 5 favourite records of all time. Billy Paul is so much more than 'Me and Mrs. Jones', believe me.

@@milesknightestrada3286 I have two of those in my collection!
@@LoganAlbright73 Which ones?
@@milesknightestrada3286 Moondog, because I’m interested in outsider and experimental music, and War of the Gods, because I collect albums from 1973.
