I'd also be interested if someone could post a shortlist of Braxton for beginners. I'm very interested in his work, and I've made several attempts to dive in, but I've never felt as if I've really engaged with it (at least, not to a degree that I'm really getting much out of it).

Can someone recommend a good starting place for Anthony Braxton's
music?  His name seems to keep coming up, and this encounter with wolf
eyes is the last straw, I'd like to hear his music.  Also, does anyone
know anything more about his personal philosophy etc?  "I have no
desire to extend American hegemony" [and adopt the title of 'jazz
musician'] has me interested with a big right on...  Seems like a very
interesting guy, I'm missing out.

best,
