BEST little know Jazz Album that you ever heard?

Thank you for this thread! I am from Sweden, started to listen to jazz 3 years ago ( at the age of 70! ) and I love it. It is good to get recommendations.
I love the swedish altosaxophonist Arne Domnerus. You probably know him from ”Jazz at the Pawnshop” but he has made many albums as good or better than JATP!
Here are 4 good examples:

I also like the TVseries Bosch based on the novels of Michael Connelly! He has a nice stereosetup and plays jazz! Here I found a new artist for me; Frank Morgan. I just love the album Mood Indigo. Connelly has made a DVD of his life ”Sound of redemption” which I unfortunately am not able yo find here in Sweden.
I also love Chet Baker and a special favorite is the album ”No Problem” recorded in Copenhagen.

Thanks for the heads-up! Just loaded on my Aurender.

And don’t forget that I was also recommending more "mainstream" period East European & Soviet jazz. Pleasae don’t let that get lost in the shuffle. Guys like Stancko & Komeda have tremendous catalogs that are (OK, just my opinion, but still) belong on a shelf with the best Miles, Coltrane, & Ellington recordings.

I concur... Jazz is a universal  earth phenomena not a north american one for a long time now ... The roots are in Africa the country of  the speaking drums ...And the canopy now enlightened the earth ...

 Then you know one of the great creative jazz pianist : Jan Johansson... Almost  unknown in North America ...

I will mention what I'm streaming right now it's new to me and not sure if it's a new release or just new on Qobuz. Alex Riel in New York with Michael Brecker. Nieslan Doky, Mike Stern, Jerry Bergonzi, Chris Minh Doky, Eddie Gomez and Kenny Werner. Pretty straight ahead jazz and it swings!
