Donald S. Cherry is the HNIC icon (and doesn't suck, BTW - he's just misunderstood), but another Don Cherry (1936-1995) was the trumpeter in Ornette Coleman's early quartets in the late 1950's and early 1960's. He went from there to sort of "inventing" world music and improvisational ambient music. His stepdaughter Neneh and son Eagle Eye have been seen and heard on MTV.
