- Sun Ra: Nuits De La Fondation Maeght
(2025, 4cd, --, strut) (2025, 6lp, --, strut)
Also out as a 6 LP box set, but I'm more than happy with my 4 CD set.
Recorded during two nights at a music festival in France in 1970, some of the material got released on two albums ("Vol.1" and "Vol.2") in 1971.
And now, the Strut record label is doing another fantastic job by releasing the 4 hours of music that made up the two concerts.
The set also includes a 20-page booklet with liner notes by some of the people who played a major role in getting the Sun Ra Arkestra to their first European concerts.
Great reading and beautiful pictures.
It must have been quite something.
Imagine the south of France in 1970.
A concert that took place in a gallery for contemporary art.
A concert that included projections and dance.
What a luxury to be able to listen to this...
