Cf. <i>Money Jungle</i>: Roach with Mingus and Ellington. Each of the three rather goes their own way a bit in the playing, but the results are cool anyway.

Roach was a great man and a wonderful musician. As you say "We Insist!" is one of the few examples of politically-inspired jazz that stands the test of time. There is more good stuff about Roach (including an even better YouTube clip than the one I used) at: http://www.mnemosyne-blog.net "Rants and musings of an uppity woman of color".
