I love Charlie Mingus' records. Particulally Tijuana Moods. It's so unique to hear improvised music lead from the bass. Like nothing else.

Coltrane is the obvious choice for picking up more about the style, but Sun Ra is worth a listen. He has always said that all his music was written as such, Which I guess removes it from Free-form, but it was always coupled with the genre due to how free and unprepared it sounded. Check it out.
