sadly I don't have a very big jazz collection right now

Sun Ra Arkestra
Miles Davis (I'm partial to his 1969 to 1976 "Electric" era)
Peter Brotzmann (LOTS of Squiggly Free Jazz Tenor Sax squeal & skronk)
Grachan Moncur/Jackie McClean
Centipede
Min Bul/Terje Rypdahl
Art Ensemble of Chicago
John Coletraine

Also, not 'Jazz' per se, but I'm incuding these as the Jazz influence is strong enough to be lumped in as Jazz:

Fela Kuti & The Afrika 70/80
James Chance & The Contortions
Koenji Hyakkei/RUINS
Plastic People Of The Universe
Saccharine Trust
Urban Sax

I like jazz fusion a decent amount. I listen to lots of Japanese jazz fusion. Jazz fusion was big in Japan, and the Japanese make utterly fantastic jazz fusion for some reason. I think it's more their attention to detail.

So for some Japanese jazz fusion people:
Toshiki Kadomatsu
Masayoshi Takanaka
Hitomi Tohyama

Also, I quite like Shakatak for non Japanese jazz fusion. Unfortunately, I don't really know much about stuff not jazz fusion. I got Herbie Hancock's Speak Like a Child album in mp3, and Magic Windows on vinyl. I got a bunch of various 78s of jazz, too, but haven't really given them a serious listen. But yeah, Japanese jazz fusion, pretty sweet music to me.

I love different kinds of jazz and listen to it on the radio or the internet. Some types of jazz can be a little bit "screechy" sounding, but other than that I love jazz
