Ever so slightly off-topic, but here's link to a pretty marvellous web exhibition of Sun Ra material from the Chicago years:

There are some records on him 'reading poetry' and 'delivering a lecture' up recently at ubu.com.
One of my favourite recordings is John Cage meets Sun Ra.

But I really enjoy MM & W.
Jeri Brown "A Timeless Place"
Jimmy Rowles
Eric Von Essen
Charlie Parker "The Charlie Parker Story"
Utterly compelling despite consisting of only 5 master takes with 11 alternate takes, breakdowns and rejects.
Paul Bley "Notes on Ornette"
Georg Graewe "Saturn Cycle"
Ernst Reijseger
Gerry Hemingway
One of the all-time great piano trios.
