IMO, this is the point where free jazz ceases to actually be jazz. No American elitism here, there is simply no jazz touchstones in this album other than instrumentation.

People have listed some non-American artists here, Van Morrison, Beatles, some others I'm forgetting. Those guys might not be American, but they play American music.
So what is European music. Of course classical and regional folk music. But what about cool modern European music? I can think of 2 European styles, progressive (which is supposed to be rock/jazz fusion but is something much worse.) And Ennio Morricone which I will call European Film Music.
Weapons, weapons, weapons M-16's, and 45's they help your country stay alive They got the guns but we got the trigger That gun of mine make me feel a whole lot bigger Social dogma you think you're safe I think I'm losing my mind Deal with reality deal with facts I've got'em shooting at me I'm gonna shoot back Cuz I like guns and guns like me I like guns they made America free I like guns and guns are the way I like guns So your lost in your lost world With my own weapon I'd rather be dead People on the streets getting shot every hour That's what Tawny Schnieder said Time to look out your front door Blow that sucker right on the floor Load your gun and let him have it The right to bear arms the right to be free Cuz I like guns and guns like me I like guns they made America free I like guns and guns are the way I like guns Weapons, weapons, weapons - GO! People on the street you think you're safe There little guns all over the place They'll take our toys and the government'll have them It's time to not let them oppress you Time to force your life on them Tell 'em the way cuz you know it Tell 'em the way cuz that's your right I like guns and guns like me I like guns they made America free I like guns and guns are the way I like guns Remember The right to bare arms The right to bare arms The right to bare arms The right to bare arms The right to bare arms The right to bare arms The right to bear arms They'll wind up coming to get you
Its a saturday night special Got a barrel that???s blue and cold Ain???t no good for nothin??? But put a man six feet in a hole
(chorus)
Hand guns are made for killin??? Ain???t no good for nothin??? else And if you like your whiskey You might even shoot yourself So why don???t we dump ???em people To the bottom of the sea Before some fool come around here Wanna shoot either you or me

Again, lets get some jazz guns in here.
Dan
d.i. - guns
Weapons, weapons, weapons
M-16's, and 45's they help your country stay alive
They got the guns but we got the trigger
That gun of mine make me feel a whole lot bigger
Social dogma you think you're safe
I think I'm losing my mind
Deal with reality deal with facts
I've got'em shooting at me I'm gonna shoot back
Cuz I like guns and guns like me
I like guns they made America free
I like guns and guns are the way
I like guns
So your lost in your lost world
With my own weapon I'd rather be dead
People on the streets getting shot every hour
That's what Tawny Schnieder said
Time to look out your front door
Blow that sucker right on the floor
Load your gun and let him have it
The right to bear arms the right to be free
Cuz I like guns and guns like me
I like guns they made America free
I like guns and guns are the way
I like guns
Weapons, weapons, weapons - GO!
People on the street you think you're safe
There little guns all over the place
They'll take our toys and the government'll have them
It's time to not let them oppress you
Time to force your life on them
Tell 'em the way cuz you know it
Tell 'em the way cuz that's your right
I like guns and guns like me
I like guns they made America free
I like guns and guns are the way
I like guns
Remember
The right to bare arms
The right to bare arms
The right to bare arms
The right to bare arms
The right to bare arms
The right to bare arms
The right to bear arms
They'll wind up coming to get you
I'm still thinking for a second, but in the meanwhile here's some "jazz ALBUM COVERS with guns":
....and then, back on the funk tip, there's Alfred Ellis w/the Dapps' "Rabbit Got the Gun"....
Got a barrel that???s blue and cold
Ain???t no good for nothin???
But put a man six feet in a hole
(chorus)
Hand guns are made for killin???
Ain???t no good for nothin??? else
And if you like your whiskey
You might even shoot yourself
So why don???t we dump ???em people
To the bottom of the sea
Before some fool come around here
Wanna shoot either you or me
