Since it's North Sea Jazz festival time this weekend, I'll post some jazz.
First off, I found the following post on /mu/ today:
and for something a little older
Krzysztof Komeda - Astigmatic
>Avant-garde Jazz, Polish Jazz

A true classic and really a must have for any comprehensive jazz collection
Bitrate: 320
And I must say, this is an amazing record. Way up there with Ornette Coleman and Eric Dolphy. I can't tell you much more about it than this and what the post above says. Amazing in one word. Go listen to it.
Beyond this, I would also like to bring to your attention the slightly less avant-garde, but no less amazing music that Rashaan Roland Kirk:
Out of these two, Rip, Rig and Panic is my favorite. On the other hand, The Inflated Tear's cover is more awesome, showing what Kirk is known for: playing multiple saxophones at once.
Anyway, for all of you people who are in the Netherlands, hop over the radio 6 website and catch some of the shows on the North Sea Jazz festival this weekend! They've got an excellent and variated show with interviews, recordings, live samples and everything you want to know about NSJ.
