Newport Jazz Festival - The Electric Circus

Artist: Sun Ra
Label: Transparency
Price: $18.95 
Year: 2008
Format: CD

Quantity:   
2-disc set recorded live at The Electric Circus (1968) and Newport Jazz Festival (1969).  Acid grooves from the original recordings.  Complete information enclosed in the booklet.

Chronologically beginning the label's survey of the lesser-known but astonishing psychedelic era of Sun Ra (1968-1971), these discs were painstakingly mastered from Michael Wilderman's original recordings. The Electric Circus show features an unknown female singer who was with the group prior to June Tyson. The sound quality is so good you might be fooled into thinking this is some lost studio album from that time. A continuous smooth acid groove, whereas the Newport set is raucous and frenetic, while still diving into lengthy solos. Sun Ra and his band from outer space!

1-11 (Disc One):  Recorded at the Newport Jazz Festival 1969
12-15 (Disc One) & 1-5 (Disc Two):  Recorded at The Electric Circus 1968

Sun Ra, Kwame Hadi, Akh Tal Ebah, Marshall Allen, Danny Davis, John Gilmore, Pat Patrick, Danny Ray Thompson, James Jacson, Robert Cmmings, Alex Blake, Nimrod Hunt, William Brister, Lex Humphries, Clifford Jarvis, June Tyson and others.
