Joe Morris is an avant-jazz electric guitarist who released a nice CD in 2007 called Rebus (Clean Feed). He is joined by Chicago tenor stalwart Ken Vandermark and Luther Gray on drums. It is one of those freewheeling sessions that grows on you the more you listen. Each cut is loosely constructed and each has a varying mood. The stuff is mucho cool in my opinion and shows you what three improvisers can come up with when inspired and mutually attuned.
A good place to find it and other jazz obscurities is http://www.cadencebuilding.com/. Check out the CD ordering service. They carry all kinds of hard to find and terrific jazz titles at decent prices. While we're at it for rock oddities http://www.forcedexposure.com/ is good.
