based on the albums that you've listed and comments that you've made in response to other askers' questions in Yahoo Answers, I suspect that your jazz cd collection is about as deep as mine, if not actually deeper. still, I'll attempt to venture an answer (sorry that I hadn't yet done so). given the titles that you currently dig, have you ever thought of checking out/checked out the following?

1. Bobby Hutcherson- Dialogue
2. Elvin Jones/Jimmy Garrison Sextet- Illumination!
3. Ken McIntyre Quartet- Open Horizon
4. John McLaughlin- Where Fortune Smiles
(title also alternatively appears under John Surman's name)
5. Jackie McLean- Destination Out!
6. Sam Rivers- Contours
7. Archie Shepp- On This Night
8. Pete "LaRoca" Sims- Turkish Women at the Bath
9. Cecil Taylor Quartet- Looking Ahead!
10. Larry Young- Of Love and Peace

some of the above titles (2, 4, 7 & 8, although 2 & 7 you can get as iTunes downloads) are out of print and, perhaps accordingly, ludicrously-priced when in such forums as Amazon. still, if you can come by them at reasonable prices, they are certainly worth picking-up. I hope that my picks/comments are of some use to you; if not, I'm sorry that I couldn't be of assistance. at any rate, have a great day!

You know, I think I played guitar with Andrew Hill. He is a piano player? Lived in the S.F. Bay Area during the 70's for a short while and moved back east ... possibly NY.. There were a bunch of guys playing jazz in Pittsburg, Ca and I knew the drummer and that's how it started. I was only 23 at the time. 30 years ago..

If you liked Eric Dolphy- Out There, you'd probably enjoy Out To Lunch which is probably his most well known album.
