Gil Evans, worked with Miles Davis, a genius arranger, love this... [Link] I know fretless bass became ubiquitous in the 80s and was diluted to almost elevator muzac, but this is the man who brought the sound to prominence in the 70s, the late great Jaco! [Link] As the 60's came to a close Miles moved into different territory. Guitar and electric piano moved to the forefront, fusion was born, for better or worse!

His eponymous album is bloody good too. I agree shelleyan orphan for horribly overlooked albums. There are a number of classics that have very much not been overlooked like forever changes, notorious Byrd bros, what's going on, marquee moon and everything by the pixies but I am embarrassed at appearing a bit mainstream.... How about the congoes?
