I also have 'Straight, No Chaser' by Thelonius Monk. What would be a good follow up?
Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane. A tremendous release.
Komeda's Astigmatic is a little harder to get into but is a great bridge between post-bop and avant garde.
I also have 'Mingus Ah Um' by Charles Mingus. What's a good follow up to that?
Mingus, Dolphy and Powell Live at Antibes
Lastly, what would be a good follow up to Adderley's 'Somethin' Else'?
Mercy Mercy
And as that album borders on soul-jazz, try out Jimmy Smith's The Sermon
And for kicks, try out Moondog if you're looking for a blind hobo viking who makes his own instruments and mixes native american rhythms with classical and jazz elements.

Dear all,
Thanks for all the recommendations. I have purchased the following:
Somethin' Else
Birth Of The Cool
Time Further Out
Giant Steps
All really good, although I've only listened to them once each so far - Cannonball Adderley playing as I type!

Thanks,

Monk: "Brilliant Corners" or "Thelonius Alone in San Fransico" - or combine Monk & Coltrane and pickup "Thelonius Monk with John Coltrane" - it's a live recording from Carnegie Hall.
Also...not sure if anyone mentioned it, but if not - pickup "Sidewinder" by Lee Morgan.
Enjoy!
As for following Mingus Ah Um, well, I like Mingus Mingus Mingus… for its similar fire and the updated versions of "Haitian Fight Song" (renamed "II B.S."), "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" (renamed "Theme for Lester Young") and "Better Get Hit In Yo' Soul". Others will probably say The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady, which is a bit more compositionally audacious…no one's wrong, both are excellent…
