These aren't really "less known" since they're very popular among jazz listeners but in terms of mainstreamness they're like one step down from Davis, Coltrane and Ellington and you should definitely be familiar with all of these:

yo but the epic was really good...sure maybe he shouldn't be lumped in with jazz greats and maybe his record was so successful only because he's on brainfeeder and maybe it's a little longwinded
but u kno u gotta recognize talent when u hear it, at least give him creds for his composition skills
