Luciano Posted 4 hours ago Report Posted 4 hours ago Does anyone have information about this unreleased Atlantic Records concert by Don Cherry? Lineup reported: Don Cherry – trumpet, vocals Janice "Jan" Cherry – violin Ricky Cherry – keyboards Stan Samole – guitar Claudio Ferreira – guitar Siegfried "Tiki" Busch – bass Anthony Busch – drums Naná Vasconcelos – percussion Raphael Cruz – percussion I’m asking because I’m not sure this concert ever actually took place. Any details, confirmation, or corrections would be greatly appreciated. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago What's the date? I'm not seeing it listed in the discography here: https://guitardiscography.com/wp-content/include-me/don-cherry/don-cherry-discography.php Usually, Siegfried Busch is credited as "Sigi" Busch, rather than "Tiki." The personnel lines up with the Hear & Now period, but I'm not seeing this specific session. Quote
Luciano Posted 2 hours ago Author Report Posted 2 hours ago Ciao Clifford thanks Blue Rock Studio, New York City, circa February, 1978 The news comes from the discography of Mike Hames and Roy Wilbraham, whom I believe you know, and I also agree with what you say about the Here & Now period. Unfortunately, dear Clifford, I can no longer talk to Don about it (how many things I would like to ask him now). I say this because we saw each other many times between 1973 and 1991. Quote

The personnel lines up with the Hear & Now period, but I'm not seeing this specific session. Again Clifford, to clarify things a bit: since I wasn’t completely sure about these sessions, I wrote to Johann Haidenbauer to check my doubts. Johann replied (in his very characteristic way): “Yeah, I think this is based on an interview that was published in DownBeat.” I know Johann well enough to recognize that his “Yeah” usually means “yes, you’re on the right track”, but both he and I prefer to keep a small margin of uncertainty — old notes and memories can always be tricky. Still, in this case I’m fairly confident that my recollection is correct. Quote
