I'll make a bold claim and say that Don Cherry was almost as important as Miles in the development of jazz. He always gets overlooked just because he started out working with Coleman. Such a shame. Cherry was this close to bringing real world music to the main stage.
Don Cherry with some of Lou Reed's musicians 1979 live in Paris. - Don Cherry: pocket trumpet, douss'n'gouni,piano,voice - Marty Fogle: soprano & tenor sax, flute - David Torn: electric guitar - Bruce Yaw: electric bass - Trilok Gurtu: tabla, drums, percussion
Then the 1980s came and were hard for everyone. Jazz fell into stereotype and world music. But today again something is happening around the excellent flute player Anne Drummond. Don Cherry is still an icon for me, like Brian Jones, Ornette Coleman, Charlie Haden, John and Alice Coltrane, Ralph Towner or Liz Story. On the trumpet no one can do as he does. This video is a real gem!
I was fortunate enough to experience a live solo performance in the late 1980s. It was held off the main lobby of the Holiday Inn in Ithaca, New York. There were perhaps 30 to 40 people in the audience. He began the performance in total darkness walking in slowly from the rear of the audience playing the donso ngoni as he walked. Just magnificent!
This looks like the French Show CHORUS. Never heard of Marty Fogle but his. look and musicianship are on point as well. Don could sure pick 'em. It's a somewhat challenging mini-set. Particularly at 18 minutes, Cherry disrupts the peak of the groove after Torn finally gets off a rockin' solo and Cherry throws them some various Ellingtonian piano riffs. The band hangs right in there.
It's an odd time to interrupt yes...I thought the guitar player had been a bit invisible up to this point, and when we finally saw him, he was swallowed.
i'm looking for a particular live don cherry recording... i haven't heard it in a while. but in it, is don cherry, steve lacy...billy higgins is introduced as "Billy banana"..billy banana then retorts "don cherry, don cherry, don cherry..." also in this recording is "Maestro togazio (sp?)" If anyone knows ,please help me out, Thanks
A gente fez essa ki o Don toca no piano nós fizemos brincando no teclado de brinquedo na casa amarela no dia ki eu fiz o quadro Improviso Durante. Poderia ter botado o finado Henrique da Vila na bateria tocava no barzinho da rua. Nó ramo da vila.

Don just steps in as natural bandleader, and they all fall in so beautifully. What I love here is that everyone is just listening. Wonderful.

And Fela Kuti, as i may say.
I have met so many trumpet players that never heard of him
.. Its crazy to me
Yusef Lateef also was a devotee of world music..
not "almost"!
important in different areas!
Fela and Don Cherry will always live in my heart

As Marty Ehrlich said, "I Don't Know This World Without Don Cherry".
Amen, brother.

Whats Liz storys music like?
I had been lived with him since 1983 to 1987 at 100 St. Marks place in NYC.
Always miss him. Thank you very much for sharing this fantastic video.
I was there those years , I would see him roller skating in the neighborhood.
@@Zongroned Yes !!! He was on roller ,also playing bamboo flute on the street.
@@SeikiYukimotoSoulbleed amazing!
Magic right there…
I first heard of Don Cherry 2 days ago. wow - the bees knees! To think this was going down in 1979. I am 65 - someone should have told me!
just got my grandmother hip she said the same thing!!!
Well at least you heard this outstanding session

Beyond his work with Ornette Coleman I knew very little other than so many raved about him. The internet has helped spread the knowledge
Get the Brown Rice album - classic important work of Don Cherry. Also very groovy and has an important trumpet solo.
...DON CHERRY LIVES!!! 4~EVER!!!
Wow...David Torn on guitar, Trilok on drums!
I didn't recognize either of these amazing musicians - thanks for pointing it out!
Great tapestries my Moki!

Super cool, free-ranging, and individual...love it. Thanks.
Wow, didn't know David Torn had played with Don...and Trilock Gurtu on Tabla's, two of my favourite Musicians. Thanks for Posting. 🎺🎶🥁🎶🎸🎶
I think I saw him around this time, supporting The Slits at the Rainbow. Brilliant gig all round. That's Lou Reed's band he's playing with.

Totally sublime
My record shop never had this kind of thing...I miss going in there and browsing through all the new grooves.Limited as it was.

Don Cherry - Codona Vol. 1 - Mumakata
@@1neAdam12 Do you know what language he's singing?
@@vigilancebrandon
My guess is some dialect of Malian West Africa, which there are more than a few indigenous languages spoken there.
Magnífico
awasome , need acid right now
Loved him with Ornette.
Then A&M released Brown Rice and Dancing in your Head in the same year.
Not sure they were ever surpassed.
lol nice Yellow Magic Orchestra intro

David Torn?
