You have some great answers here!
If you can really get into Tony Williams Lifetime, try any of Billy Cobbham's or Alphonse Mouzon's recordings where they are the leader of the group. Both are a LITTLE more "in" than Williams, but both are amazing and great soloists! P.S.- I love Tony Williams too!

Those are some amazing recording you have listed! Clearly, you have gone far below the surface of jazz listening and appreciation.
I spend a good deal of time on All Music.com, which has a plethora of information on each of these artists, along with other artists and recording of similar style. Kind of like, "If you liked this, then you'll also like..."
Here are some parallels:
Booker Ervin: Johnny Griffin - A Blowin' Session
Andrew Hill: McCoy Tyner - The Real McCoy
Eric Dolphy: John Handy - The 2nd John Handy Album
Prince Lasha: Yusef Lateef - The Blue Yusef Lateef
Bobby Hutcherson: Gary Burton - Duster
Tony Williams Lifetime: Billy Cobham - Spectrum (the greatest fusion album of all time, in my opinion)
These are some from my collection and I enjoy them all. Happy listening!

Eric Dolphy is avant garde.
Tony Williams Lifetime is fusion.
I never heard of Prince Lasha & Sonny Simmons.
I don't see much of a common denominater. Actually most of them have some degree of avant garde in their background. Is that what you want more of? Heres most of the avant garde people I could dig up: John Coltrane (later years), Ornette Coleman, Sun Ra, Eric Dolphy, Albert Ayler, Sonny Sharrock, Carla Bley, Charlie Mingus, Pharaoh Sanders, Archie Shepp, Cecil Taylor, Don Cherry, Dewey Redman, Atr Ensemble Of Chicago, Derek Bailey, Ed Blackwell, Anthony Braxton, Sam Rivers, Charlie Haden, Globe Unit Orchestra, Joe Harriot, John Zorn, Evan Parker, Paul Bley, Gato Barbieri
