As we recall, Don Cherry, if not the very first, at least made his first appearance near the beginning of this DOTM series. He's back now because we were scrolling through YouTube looking for something else, and we came across this incredible performance from 1971 and just had to re-post it here immediately (literally, we just heard this for the first time mere minutes ago). In this set, he channels everything from Dollar Brand/Abdullah Ibraham to his own Mu series of LPs, and even foreshadows the direction his music went during his mid-70s Brown Rice phase.
Great stuff, and to think this is what was being broadcast on French t.v. in the early 1970s!
