Corrected: A rare film clip (there must be more where this came from), posted on Youtube in September 2010, of the Don Cherry Trio live in Paris in 1971. Cherry, an American, is on piano and cornet and is accompanied by South African bassist Johnny Dyani and Turkish percussionist/drummer, Okay Temiz. All three called Sweden home at that time. Cherry is singing in Xhosa; probably one of Dyani’s compositions. Cherry later appeared on Dyani’s 1978 album, “Song for Biko.” Separetely Dyani and Temiz formed the group Xaba with another South African Mongezi Feza. Dyani died before playing a show in Germany in 1986. Chimurenga Magazine‘s most recent issue has an interview by Aryan Kaganof with Dyani.
