"This recording presents the spiritual and musical explorations of the late Sun Ra in a rare (and relatively quiet and pensive) small group setting; the lone horn player is longtime Ra associate John Gilmore, on tenor sax; and the bassist is John Ore, whose career also included early stints with Cecil Taylor and Thelonious Monk. Recorded live at the Village Vanguard in November of 1991, Sun Ra's playful synthesizer lines explore standards and originals including extensive versions of "Round Midnight" and "Sun Ra Blues." (Amazon Editiorial Review).
"Trumpeter Freddie Hubbard leads a particularly talented sextet (with trombonist Curtis Fuller, a rare outing away from Sun Ra for tenor saxophonist John Gilmore, pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Art Davis, and drummer Louis Hayes) on three of his originals and strong versions of "Summertime" and "Caravan." This advanced hard bop music was reissued on CD in 1996 with 20-bit mastering." (Scott Yanow, Allmusic)
Geïnspireerd op een surrealistisch schilderij en heeft ook die feel. Uit 1968, voelt vrij aan (maar niet 'free'), klinkt transparant en is suggestief: de kunst van het weglaten. Met een jonge Corea (p) en een excellerende Sun Ra-saxofonist John Gilmore (ts).
