"Don Cherry, more than any other artist in the jazz of his era, pioneered the music's internationalist nature that has now come to be commonly accepted as an integral part of its character. The individuality of Cherry's contribution to the history of jazz has often been unfairly obscured by his admittedly important association with the music of Ornette Coleman. While the (pocket) trumpeter's position as Coleman's front line partner in the altoist's first revolutionary quartet was indeed a major one, Cherry's role as one of the founders of the genre that is known today as "world music" is equally significant." - Russ Musto

"It has been over 40 years since the performance and it has not lost its impact." ? Jerry D'Souza, All About Jazz "This joyously free yet well organized modern music is to
some extent an outgrowth of Cherry's early experiences with Ornette Coleman but
is much more directly inspired by the imaginative principles and grandly
expressive behavior of Albert Ayler." |
