I'll just list a couple of favorites.Bright Moments - I nominate this as the quintessential live Kirk album, though the true quintessence must include the visual, so the video The One Man Twins is essential. It unfortunately hasn't made it to DVD.Rip, Rig & Panic - I think many will agree this is his best 'pure jazz' album.Blacknuss & Volunteered Slavery, both for the amazing alchemy he did with the soul tunes of the day. I have the 32 Jazz compilation, 'Left Hook, Right Cross' that includes both.That's my short list. After that, everything else!. I'd agree with Pete C. On Rip, Rig and Panic (available with the underrated Now Please Don't You Cry, Beautiful Edith).

I'd put Domino and We Free Kings in there too. But here are 3 I rarely see mentioned:Rahsaan Roland Kirk and Al Hibbler: A Meeting of the Times (available as a Collectible album combined with - of all things - Ornette!

The Inflated Tear A little about the artist: Roland Kirk (later to be known as Rahsaan Roland Kirk) is one of the most interesting characters in the jazz world.

The Atlantic Ornette! Album, not Coleman meets Kirk.)Roy Haynes: Out of the Afternoon on Impulse (1961?) with Kirk, Tommy Flanagan and Henry GrimesJaki Byard Experience: on Prestige with Kirk, Richard Davis and Alan DawsonRahsaan was an irrepressible cat - don't be fooled into labeling him a sideman on these disks. All of them!!! B)Start with the Rah box (Mercury, 10CDs), then get 'The Inflated Tear', then start on all the Atlantics, make sure you get hold of a copy of the 3CD set (32jazz) with two live discs and Kirk's stunning solo album, and after that you'll want to have the rest.

The Warner albums do have some very fine playing, too!And one I'm very fond of is 'Introducing', rec. 1960, with Ira Sullivan - a beautiful album, indeed!(And he did record his first album four years before, for Bethlehem, another nice one).Then the Prestige album with Jack McDuff is really cool, too!ubu. I'll just list a couple of favorites.Bright Moments - I nominate this as the quintessential live Kirk album, though the true quintessence must include the visual, so the video The One Man Twins is essential.

I have the 32 Jazz compilation, 'Left Hook, Right Cross' that includes both.That's my short list. After that, everything else!I agree completely with Pete's list. A few others to add are:Inflatable TearLeft and Right. 'Bout the only stuff I'm even a little cold on is the post-'500 Lb. Man' WB material, (not '500 Lb' itself, though, which remains one of my favorite Kirk sides for the superb integration of production and performance, a more fully - and perfectly - realized version of the concepts of 'aural theatre' put forth on 'Audio Dream', I think) and even then, there's never really a bad album or a bad performance, just some (what are for me, anyway) 'questionable' production decisions.And having said that, many of his earlier Atlantic albums are uneven like a mofo, but in the way that a roller coaster ride is uneven. I, for one LOVE roller coaster rides!.

I really have a soft place in my heart for his three warner bros. Albums, most recently compiled into 2cds as 'A Standing Eight' on 32 Jazz. A great eclectic collection of music with great sidemen/women (Hank Jones, Milt Hinton, Trudy Pitts, Charlie Persip, Steve Turre, Percy Heath,Tiny Grimes, Sammy Price, etc).

Kirk mainly plays tenor sax with some flute and harmonica. Very little multiple horn playing since a fair amount of this music is post stroke.I doubt many people think these are his best releases but you certainly have to admire his determination to the end even though he didn't have much left to give.

I equate his last album to Ellington's tribute to Billy Stayhorn in that you feel the joy and celebration in the music as well as the sadness and melancholy.
