Don Cherry Inside/Outside
Recorded Live in Amsterdam, Netherlands, August 14, 1987
Don Cherry - trumpet
Carlos Ward - alto saxophone
David Murray - tenor saxophone, bass clarinet
Mark Helias - bass
Ed Blackwell - drums
It is uncommon to see a pocket trumpet played at a venue. It is a travel practice instrument. Fun.
I agree, always a fun surprise to see one magically appear. The last time I head one was a recent performance by Joe McPhee in Chicago.
Coincidently I was just offered a Jupiter 416 pocket trumpet at a great price by an estate of a trumpet player.
It is an interesting world.
Sometimes things fall the right way.

I was interrupted shortly into this one, so I’m repeating it.

Al Tootie Heath!
OMG I forgot how awesome the two takes of “Old Folks,” duets by Gordon with NHOP, are on this disc. Just Dexter at his best and NHOP gives him everything he needs.
Hank Roberts Black Pastels, some exceptional 12 string acoustic guitar from Bill Frisell on this Winter & Winter release.
Starting the morning off with something diffferent that I haven’t heard for a while. This edition has a hi-res verson on DVD that sounds great, but my main system doesn’t play DVD (my other two systems do) so. . .here’s the excellent sounding cd version.
