Good choice. He's really, to me at least, the god of Free Jazz.

You can never go wrong with Coltrane (I hate the song "My Favorite Things," but the version he does is insanely awesome. Particularly one passage during which he plays in a manner that's pretty much the equivalent of double-tapping..on a saxophone. Though his earlier stuff is kind of hard to really classify as 'free' jazz.
Jacki McLean is a good free-jazz saxophonist too, if you want to check it out.
greenMonkey:
Coltrane's early stuff isn't free jazz in any sense of the word.
It's still amazing though.

Yes, I did mean the collective ou, but why would that mean I am french?

Not much..Just some duke ellington, Dizzy Gillespie, random stuff that I played.
Just about to check out 'the shape of jazz to come' by ornette Coleman.

I'm surprised we've gotten this far without having mentioned Derek Smalls.
