Right now I've been listening to a lot of records without any chordal instruments (piano, guitar, etc.). I'm really into the sax, bass, and drums sound lately.

Anyone know of any good records along these lines? I've got:

-Fly - Fly (absolutely smokin' record)
-Joe Henderson - State Of The Tenor double album (also incredible)
-Eric Dolphy - Out There (really interesting album, it's got Ron Carter on cello making it a quartet)
-Don't have the album, but theres a fantastic trio from Vancouver, BC called the October Trio.

Anyone know of more I should check out?

Joshua Redman did this on his last album "Back East"
As said before, Sonny Rollins, one of the pioneers of this style.
Also check out Chet Baker and Gerry Mulligan's pianoless stuff, at the time it was considered avant garde.
