in den liner notes des reissues erinnert sie sich ein bisschen an ihre fruehe Karriere „Back in Belgium I then had a few concerts under my own name with a trio comprised of Johnny Dyani on bass and Mongezi Feza on trumpet, an I asked my father to join us for that `free adventure‘. In 1969 we opened for Miles Davis at the Liege Festival. That evening, Wayne Shorter heard the group and asked me to come to NY to record with him …“ob das dann so klang wie das trio von dyani und feza mit oktay temiz kurz danach?
über ihre new york zeit schrieb sie ja auch noch, dass sie da immer in einem haus zu besuch war, in dem corea, holland und liebman auf verschiedenen etagen wohnten. war vielleicht so ne art weißes arkestra…
ah, das ist die laengere Version des Interviews, die nicht mit in den liner notes ist, vor Jahren mal gelesen [edit, wahrscheinlicher: ich hab den Absatz ueberlesen, link]… das Haus kam auch neulich vor als Steve Grossman starb. Aus den Erinnerungen von Dave Liebman (link)
The door was always open to musicians and it was quite an active center on West 19th street in Chelsea between 6th and 7th Ave. Eventually Chick Corea and Dave Holland lived in the building. So, you know, this all lead to the next years with Miles and Elvin for both of us. [also Liebman und Grossman]
There was quite a bit of mixing going on. You know, they’d pop upstairs or I might go downstairs to play with Chick. There was a lot of interaction. We were also all into macrobiotic diets baking bread at the same time each day and so forth. There were a lot of common interests. Miles even came over one night. Dave and Chick made dinner for him and of course I was there. There was a lot of activity…yoga…that was the beginning of Chick going into Scientology, Indian philoophy and so on. We were living the life of artists, young artists in Manhattan at a very low economical level but workable, going to clubs and jam sessions hanging out all night.
