Sun Ra
Lanquidity

It was gifted to us by Saturn.

Read the writing on "Supersonic Jazz". If you don’t believe it, you deserve to be mocked by the cymbals at the start of "India".

Stun yourself with unhealthy voodoo dances.

"Lanquidity" is an exceptional Pandora's box. Published in 1978, but who knows how long it had been blooming in the picturesque mind of Sun Ra.

The surreal beginning of the title track is submerged in an unlikely anarchic composure. It seems to unfold a completely unattainable near future. The notes are greedy, with semblances that don't excessively bare themselves.

The second turn is "Where Pathways Meet", where only those who don't think of "Spanish Key" or "Sextant" are rewarded. You're hurled into the jungle of dark spirits. The rhythms are nothing short of tribal, on which the solos of the individuals are triggered. In the phantasmagorical struggle, the two guitarists of the Arkestra clearly triumph.

It's a plastic jazz. Sounds that bounce from the fairy softness of the Canterbury Moog to the roughness of Roscoe Mitchell's sax.

You start to grow fond of this ambient. It's impossible not to be enchanted by "That's How I Feel" and "Twin Stars Of Thence".

Guitars, organ, and bass are the voices of this magma floating in the golden sunset.
