Ciao Corto Maltese, I was sure of everything you wrote, and I knew that it was issued in France by Stateside (I have that copy. And also the IMPULSE version was issued in France. I knew the history of that promo issue just yesterday.), but someone suggests: 1) Impulse instead Stateside 2) Cherry doesn't plays on it. And suggest thtat the trumpet player was Coleman (but I reognize the Cherry sound) Well, I hope we are in the correct way to think so. Many thanks for your answer Luciano

I wish to known what is the first pressing of the 7 inches record by Ornette Coleman MAN ON THE MOON: Is it: STATESIDE 2C 006-90643 M or: IMPULSE! 45 275? Again: someone suggest that Don Cherry doesn't plays on it. Is it correct that information? Greetings Luciano PS: Someone could write me the catalogue number of this CD: Ornette Coleman & Don Cherry Live in LA. Hillcrest Performance 1958, by the label: Master Classic Records?

Instead of replying I have a question about the First press of the 7 Inches record by coleman: MAN ON THE MOON is it the Stateside 2C 006-90643M or IMPULSE! 42275 Greetings Luciano

thanks Luciano

Ciao King Ubu I can try to explain something about organissimo. I'm not sure to use this forum (and any other forum) correctly. SO I have a question about your last post: okay... and on my ... Well: it is an answer to clifford thornton who wrote: I think you're correct, yeah, although the top photo I thought was shot in the early 60s. Bottom is a cornet. ? Anyway, to return at my former question and in a simple manner: you think that the pocket used by Cherry was a p. trumpet, a p. cornet or, why not, he use all two during his career? Thanks and greetings Luciano

Thank you clifford, considerer your nickname you are a trumpet's expert. Well: if I understand well (I must apologize for my bad English); 1) Don played a pocket trumpet made in Pakistan. Yhat wasn't a good instrument; 2) After he plays a Besson's pocket trumpet, not cornet In conclusion: Don plays Always a pocket trumpet, never a pocket cornet Hoping in your new answer I sent you my best greetings Luciano

Thanks Joe Yes the Cherry instrument is different that tose in the Ted's photoGreetings Luciano

Ciao King Ugu probably I will write in italian considering you living in Switzerlan. I'm agree with you in order the pocket trumpet. I knew Don Cherry and I organized severals concert in Italy for him but unfortunatly I never asked him nothing about the pocke (as I assumed it was a pocket trumpt) But, if you search on the web you will see that now several musicians write: pocket cornet Many thanks for your answer, if his son David will reply me about Pocket cornet or Trumpet I will tell you Luciano

I have always believed that Don Cherry was playing a pocket trumpet (a legend circulate about it: that that trumpet was playing during the America Civil War) Now I read: "...Very few name players are identified with pocket cornets. Certainly the best known would be the late free jazz player Don Cherry, who played a 1930s vintage Besson MEHA pocket cornet (almost always identified as a pocket trumpet)." I have read that he before he was playing a Pakistani pocket cornet...! See: http://www.pocketcornets.com/html/pocket_players.html Many jazz critics now write "pocket cornet". Someone known something about this question? Is it "cornet" or "trumpet"? Luciano

Glad you are so confident. I have seen it spelled multiple ways in multiple places - not to mention variations on Latif. Ciao, so, according to you, Luqman Lateef and Luqman Abdul Lateer are the same person greetings Luciano

Cioa Groovissimo Don't worry, I make same mistake as yours each time I write in English and in Italien too) Thanks Look cioa instead of Ciao

Again Grovissimo, but the bassist' name is Leberg or Lesberg?

Thank you Groovissimo. you are a very kind person Greetings Luciano

Jack Leberg, and the others?

I don't known if my previous post it is saved so I repeat my question: were Kawaida was recorded? New York City? New Jersey?

Dear Nessa, happy to write you (expecially if you are the Chuck Nessa of Nessa Records, as I suppose). I'm a Don Cherry's passionate and I wish to known if the unissued session by Cherry could be recorded in Los Angeles, Atlantic's Studio, 1961 and the titles: 5829 The Idiot (04:56) 5830 Harlemite (08:34) 5831 Black Elk Speaks (07:10) On the contrary, could you so kind to write date recording and any other informations about?
