This is nice!
Listening to this record in particular gives me a strong impression of free jazz being quite similar to religious/ritualistic/tribal music (no idea what to call it precisely)

Too bad because he has some amazing albums.

Currently listening to:
Billy Bang Quintet Featuring Frank Lowe ‎– Above & Beyond: An Evening In Grand Rapids

https://open.spotify.com/album/5vkDqYF9IM3fg6CmWgRqD0

It's far from smooth jazz but this should be very listenable even for people who aren't into avantgarde jazz.
Not to say that there aren't some delicous dissonant flourishes here and there keeping it interesting.
This album is also a farewell to the great sax player Frank Lowe who died from lung cancer not long after this concert.
He sounds great here and you'd never guess that this is the playing of a dying man with just one lung left.
Recommended for pretty much everybody here who likes jazz.

Miss you dude

Patrick Shiroishi & Dylan Fujioka - Neba Neba


Japanese free jazz. Some Kaoru Abe influence (I'm thinking Jazz Bed especially), some heavy sporatic drums a la Paal Nilssen-Love, but still unique in its own right.
