Cherry, Don – “Live At Cafe Montmartre 1966 ” – [Esp-Disk]

Cousin Mary   1/11/2009   CD, Jazz

Recorded live in Denmark in 1966. Don Cherry on trumpet, Argentine Gato Barbieri on sax, German vibe player Karl Berger, Italian Aldo Romano on drums, and Danish bass Bo Stief give a new meaning to ???world music???.

As Cherry says in track 5, ???free improvisation, music now??? ??? wild, sometimes cacophonous, sometimes melodic ??? very refreshing, upbeat, virtuoso and vibrant. Track 1 ??? announcement only. Track 4 ??? long quote of ???Taste of Honey???. Tracks 2-6 begin with Cherry???s announcements.
