SUN RA - SPRINGTIME IN CHICAGO


"Springtime In Chicago" is one of these must-have Sun Ra releases. This two disc album presents the September 1978 concert that Sun Ra and his Arkestra did in Chicago.
It's a classic. 'Astro Black', 'Discipline', 'Yeah! Man', 'Space Is The Place', ... they're all there. And all of my favourite Arkestra members are present as well: John Gilmore, Marshall Allen, Michael Ray, June Tyson, ...
This album is a perfect introduction if you're not familiar with the Arkestra. And if you're a fan, you probably already have this set of discs.
