Am I the only one that thought you mean this Don Cherry?

Very neat collection, thanks for this. It's hard to imagine what it was like to experience these back when simple video tricks were fresh and new, but some of the early ones are still kind of creepy and fascinating.

I love Don Cherry so much. He used to rollerskate around manhattan, apparently, with that propeller-beanie on his head (it's on the cover of one of the actuel reissues) playing flutes & shit. What's up with Eagle Eye & Neneh though?
