Like Arabic bebop rhythms with bebop Master Musicians of Joujouka. I will have to deep dive into Don Cherry discography.

Sonny Sharrock — electric guitar
Pharoah Sanders — tenor & soprano saxophones
Elvin Jones — drums
Charnett Moffett — acoustic bass


Pharoah and Elvin paired together just ain't fair
happy to hear you enjoyed the Don Cherry vid. discovered by me the day it was posted
there is simply no replacement for the opportunity to watch skilled musicians interact to create sound

Berliner Jazztage 1971

Ornette Coleman - alto, trumpet, violin
Dewey Redman - tenor
Charlie Haden - bass
Ed Blackwell - drums

Circle in the Round

recorded late '67, released '69 on a compilation album of the same name.

performed just a couple of months after Nefertiti, this song signals the end of the second great quintet of Miles, Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, and Tony Williams.

what makes it unique is twenty-one year old Joe Beck playing electric guitar.
believed to be the first non-acoustic Miles track recorded, just before Miles in the Sky in January of the following year when Herbie and Ron go full electric on stuff and George Benson brings his own paraphernalia

I use my phone so just entering in the URL works for me, but I can do it the other way, too.

The vocal doesn't come across well, but it's interesting that Jimmy Scott was not credited or credited as a woman.
