Editor's info:
Don Cherry (1936-1995) created an influential legacy by contrasting his Bebop-style Jazz with genres such as Free Jazz and World music. His rise to prominence came in the late 1950s performing Free Jazz with Ornette Coleman. Their music not only shook up the Jazz community with their avant garde sound and inventive compositional structure, but became part of the liberating social revolution that resonated in 1960s American culture. Cherry s interest expanded beyond the gamut of American styles into exotic musical structure and composition. His arrangements often juxtaposed instrumental experimentation with the solemn and ancient musical traditions of the ethnic lands he traveled. Cherry s Bebop-infused solos provided the controversial genre with a traditional Jazz sensibility, helping to maintain an enduring Jazz narrative!

What we've got here is avant jazz from one of the past masters of this form… every piece is an adventure… it's some of the most intriguing jazz I've ever heard
Spectator Magazine

Mr. Cherry has integrated chant-like modal melodies, the tonal flexibility of Mr. (Ornette) Coleman's approach, the harmonic and rhythmic elaborations of be-bop, and an encyclopedic knowledge of non-Western music into a personal style of persuasive originality and depth.
by Robert Palmer, The New York Times

…mixes Monk, reggae, world beat, modal jazz, all in an up and down European gig filmed with care and attention…overall musicality burns through
