The trio move through an immersive, hypnotic set, joined for part of the evening by Oregon members Ralph Towner, Paul McCandless and Glen Moore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe concert comes from a fertile point in Cherry’s late-1970s journey, as his “Organic Music” philosophy folded Eastern and African traditions into a borderless spiritual jazz language. Switching between trumpet, West African doussn’gouni, bamboo flutes, percussion and vocals, Cherry builds a deeply resonant sound world alongside Walcott and Thomas’s unmistakable yodel-inflected voice. Recorded only a month after Walcott’s ECM album \u003cem\u003eGrazing Dreams\u003c\/em\u003e, the performance feels like a hypnotic forerunner to CODONA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLong circulated among dedicated listeners, the full concert has been newly remastered and officially licensed by the Don Cherry Estate and producer James Quinlan.
