Cherry, Don
Home Boy, Sister Out
Don Cherry's downtown Paris funk masterwork produced in 1985 by Ramuntcho Matta and originally released by Barclay in France only, finally gets a worldwide release on Wewantsounds. The album features French post punk muse Elli Medeiros (Stinky Toys, Elli & Jacno), avant garde poet Brion Gysin and cult Senegalese drummer Abdoulaye Prosper Niang (from the mythical group Xalam). Newly remastered, the album is augmented by five bonus tracks culled from Matta's vauts and including the superb 'Kick' featuring Gysin.
