Synopsis

Product Description
(2-CD set) A beautiful 99 minute performance from the Club Lingerie in Hollywood, Dec.14, 1985, with amazing acoustic piano solos, lots of vocals from Ra, June Tyson and various band members, and many many surprises. Includes an extremely surreal 10 minute version of Mack The Knife that Kurt Weill would have been proud of. Documentation of the Arkestra shows in Los Angeles has so far been sorely missing, but this high-quality recording (as part of the audio series on Transparency) seeks to remedy that situation.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"At a time when the legendary club was famous for heavy metal bands, the Sun Ra Arkestra made a stop in 1985 and performed an amazing set which curved and swerved through jazz, avant-garde, funk and big band swing.



The 13 tracks in the 2-CD set includes Sun Ra's interpretation of the iconic pop hit, Mack the Knife, which is worth the price of admission. Released in May 2006, this is a great find from a period of time when the chronicling of concerts was not as extensive on the authorized releases."
