Live at Cafe Montmartre CD (ESP Disk)

Explicit proof of music as a universal language, this legendary March 1966 live recording from Copenhagen's Cafe Montmartre, finally released decades later, finds Cherry backed by four henchmen who all spoke different languages: Gato Barbieri, Karl Berger, Bo Stief and Aldo Romano. The fire and fury of the playing doesn't prevent the music from frequently being more accessible than expected for the free-jazz genre.
