a clip from the start of angelo rastelli's movie nudi verso la follia. the film begins with an excerpt of don cherry's show at the 6th re nudo pop festival in 1976, at the parco lambro, near milan.
among the other musicians toni esposito on drums, giampiero pramaggiore on guitar (here with don and moki on italian tv) and moki cherry on tampoura (but you can't really hear her because the others are firing off into the heavens).
'the real merit of this document is as a photograph of a movement that, as finardi says, after at least three years of illusion of uniting music with the ideas of the proletariat and youth movements, was now on the verge of an epochal change'.
the full movie is available on youtube. horsemouth continues his researches into an era he knows little about.
wait let horsemouth check what day it is.
it's the thursday.
horsemouth goes off to sit in on a zoom meeting 4.30pm in the afternoon (decarbonisation stuff) to be followed by a consortium meeting friday (after tuesday's social housing regulation stuff). otherwise the communal endeavour stuff all rolls along keenly - they have taken on debt and are paying it off but do not yet have the rental income to cover that debt (but they will do soon).
next week the management committee meeting.
for the meeting this afternoon he will journey down through the sun fried streets and across the parched parks full of beautiful people. h_____y is, horsemouth has argued, the equivalent of montreal's plateau.
he listened to david runciman making sense of joan didion's disquiet with the era.
horsemouth is a vegetarian (here are some reasons why). he has been a vegetarian for something like 40 years now and does not regret it one bit.
