my father was Don's manager in the 80's/90's in SF. My parents first met Don and Moki when they were actors touring Europe. Don was like an uncle to me growing up. He would improvise with me when I played cello, gave me piano lessons, took me roller skating in GG park and gave me the best pink GAP bag when I was 9 years old with $20 inside of it which I still have to this day and it has traveled the world with me. Walk on Uncle Don and rest in power. Brown rice, miso soup and palm trees ;-)

Don Cherry was a musical griot and pioneer of free jazz and world music. He was also one of the first US jazz musicians to travel to Africa and Scandinavia and collaborate with local musicians. A master improviser, and fluent on a wide variety of instruments, he always played with ecstasy. Long live Don Cherry--he died too young.

He fathered adopted children Neneh Cherry and Eagle Eye Cherry, early R&B hip-hop artists. Cherry & Pepper were Jazz Fusion artists utilizing tribal beats, rhythms & music in their varied projects.

So please share this and the other jazz greats with the young folks. They usually love it if given an ear. And might create some new artists. Thanks.

Nice to know that there's another, more talented and decent Don Cherry out there, who's not the ignorant racist buffoon we in Canada are routinely subjected to on televised hockey games!

time to join all these comments :] honestly, it's rare that I ever feel at peace. for almost as long as I've been conscious, restlessness and scatterbrained is my 'normal'. I'm always searching for something. I think it's hard for me to say I usually feel together or one with my thoughts or my self, but this record brought me that sort of one-ness; like a feeling of 'okay'ness that I am not at all used to. it pushed me to explore a part of myself I don't usually get to examine and I'm grateful that it popped up in my recommended. I have everything I need for now
