Henry Threadgill's "Too Much Sugar" was directly influential on Beauty Pill's "Afrikaner Barista," although I understand why nobody noticed this.
BEAUTY PILL
Reminds me of Oh, By The Way by Charles Mingus. A severely under appreciated period by the man.
Also, (brag) seeing Henry Threadgill perform Too Much Sugar For a Dime in 1993 is one of the best things I’ve ever experienced in my life. We are fortunate to exist while he is creating on this planet.
