_Strange Fruit_ is as disturbing as it gets in Jazz, so that would be my
choice.
Simon Weil
It is very rough, it's called "Don't Brush My Teeth Much Any More", and the
first verse is as follows:
"Missed the toilet last night
"Pee'd all over the floor
"Cleaned it up with my toothbrush
"Don't brush my teeth much any more".

Carla Bley - especially if she features Gary Valente and his fog-horn
trombone e.g. "The Lord is Listenin' To Ya, Hallelujah!"

Antithesis to "easy listening", which is pretty much what "smooth
jazz" is, should be something that requires effort to listen to. So,
how about anything by Pharoah Sanders or Archie Shepp??
I can just see the adherents of Muzak listening to Karma all
