  4. I know that I am late posting this, but I haven't been paying much attention in here lately, sadly, but if this is down your path, then you need to check out the Jooklos.

    Consisting of Virginia Genta and David Vanzan, they have been making scorching free jazz for 20 years now, but also been making far out free improv psych. Seeing as this is mostly a place committed to the former, here are a few Jooklos essentials:

    Jooklos Duo - Free Serpents
    Genta/Vanzan/Corsano - Live
    Jooklos Finnish Quartet - Birthday Session
    Jooklos Quartet - Where has Jazz Gone?
    Jooklos Danish Group - Mixture of Energies
    Jooklos Duo - High

    Saw Genta and Vanzan twice: live in Herrsching, southern Germany feat. Hartmut Geerken, Virginia Genta, David Vanzan, Maurizio Abate, Paolo Pascolo, Luca Massolin and Mr Qbico (June 7, 2008).
    Plus the Jooklo Duo with Geerken on February 26, 2012 in Munich.
