Sortie by Steve Lacy, released on Polydor in 1966.

ILY wrote on Rate My Music:

Delineated by the 11-minute "Sortie", a scattered and disconnected fresco of bright-colored convulsions, Sortie delivered constant battles of mutual completeness between Steve Lacy on the saxophone and Enrico Rava on the trumpet, predating the manic funk-jazz of Miles Davis in the '70s. "Black Elk" and the 14-minute "Living T Blues" were cut from the same cloth, both depicting eye-catching episodes of feverish imagination and contained shudders.

The Straight Horn of Steve Lacy is the third album by Steve Lacy and the first to be released on the Candid label in 1961. It features performances of tunes written by Thelonious Monk, Cecil Taylor, Miles Davis, by Lacy, Charles Davis, John Ore and Roy Haynes.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 5 stars stating "Some of soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy's most interesting recordings are his earliest ones. After spending periods of time playing with Dixieland groups and then with Cecil Taylor (which was quite a jump), Lacy made several recordings that displayed his love of Thelonious Monk's music plus his varied experiences...on three of the most difficult Monk tunes ("Introspection," "Played Twice," and "Criss Cross") plus two Cecil Taylor compositions and Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee."
