What do you consider to be the most 'Progressive' Jazz albums released in the 1950's and 1960's?

I like Bebop, Hard Bop, Modal Jazz, Free Jazz, and Jazz Fusion especially. But I am grateful for any recommendations.

It depends on the definition of 'progressive'.

I think Bill Evans' output during this period was the most influential. He change not so much what was played, but how it is played. In the early 1960’s Evans and his trio released several albums that would change the inner workings of the piano trio along with modern pianists’ idea of harmony and melody. There was group dynamics before Bill Evans, and after Bill Evans. It is kind of like guitar, before and after Charlie Christian. The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings illustrate of an example of this new trio idea of 'democracy' within the group.

Insofar as turning the Jazz scene on its head.

Giant Steps - Coltrane
Kind of Blue - Miles Davis
Time Out - David Brubeck et al
That Ornet Coleman album that did the free jazz (I am not the worlds biggest fan)
Mingus Ah Um - Charles Mingus

Miles in the Sky - Miles Davis, probably one of the first attempted at 'jazz/rock' fusion album (the tune Stuff especially).
In a Silent Way - Miles Davis

Great Classical Chamber music for trio( Flute, Violin and piano)?

please let me know any chamber music for trio

(Flute Violin and piano.)

It does not have to be romantic pieroid.

but If it is romantic period piece, it will be more great.

Thanks

it hasn't to be a piece for trio exactly. for example the Orchestral Suite No.2 by Bach can be played with a trio of piano, flute and violin.
