Suggest one obsure album we all should hear

Blues Guitar for the Homeless - Various

Ten New Songs - Leonard Cohen

I thought that the McLaughlin Trio was CD as well. Thankfully, it was released in ’90 and reissued on 180g (German-Optimal) in 2015.

That album was a huge inspiration as I’m a bassist. Kai Eckhardt went from Berklee School of Music to landing this gig. Beautiful fretless and fretted playing. Trilok Gurtu, known as an Indian percussionist, plays trap kit, though I believe he was seated on the floor, IIRC.

Bozzio - Levin - Stevens: "Black Light Syndrome"

Harry Partch
San Diego State prof.  In particular Eight Hitchhiker Inscriptions from a Highway Railing at Barstow California
Tidal has it, album is  The World Harry Parch
He designed and built his own instruments and tonal scale

What a great thread. Where else would we find such gems as "Eight Hitchhiker Inscriptions..." by Harry Partch?  (the king of non-12TET)

Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t see any Fred Frith yet.

My pick:
Espers "S/T"
