“The result is astonishing. ‘See You In A Minute” has this hypnotic vibe that will take you along” – United Mutations

Having played with Don Cherry a lot, the Berger Knutsson Spering plus some friends recorded an album of Don Cherry’s music for his tenth death anniversary.

We picked a handfull of favourite songs and the musicians to play them

In the spring of 2005 the Berger Knutsson Spering trio sat down to go thru old tapes from Don Cherry concerts. We picked a handfull of favourite songs and the musicians to play them with: Christer Bothen, Per Tjernberg and Sigge Krantz who all worked with Don, plus a few of our other favourites: Thomas Gustafsson, Mats Öberg and Lars Almqvist.

Neneh and Eagle-Eye were our guests on some of the pieces.

We recorded in june, mixed in september and proudly released the result, See You In A Minute, on the 10th death anniversary of Don Cherry, october 19 2005. The album consists of See You In A Minute, a suite to and from Don Cherry. Plus eight of the finest songs he used to play. Don’s children Neneh and Eagle-Eye is singing on three of them.

A great article about Moki Cherry and her art

At Baltimore Kissa Society you find a site with a great article about Moki Cherry and her art, especially as an integrated part of Don Cherry music world. Moki’s art figures a lot on my page about Don as well.
