kh1958 Posted November 2, 2022 Report Share Posted November 2, 2022 https://insheepsclothinghifi.com/sun-ra-prophet/?fbclid=IwAR1Ak2PJO5aspUUX2Y6qhHLnxItagpgFMntMcvf2F0VBe2F3CatuXHGLu8M Sun Ra improvising on a Prophet VS synthesizer in 1986? Pump it straight into our veins. In the summer of that year while in Boston with his band, Sun Ra splashed down in a high-tech studio called Mission Control. Among the many synths and sound generators he approached was a newly released Prophet VS (“Vector Synthesizer”). The programmable digital keyboard, created by genius electronic synthesist Dave Smith, was remarkably sophisticated. Ra took to it and started playing. A recording of that session, called Prophet, will see release in December. Released by Modern Harmonics, Prophet is a mesmerizing listen – or at least the 10-minute video that we’ve heard above is. It will be released on December 16 on vinyl (including a few different variants) and CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dprfish Posted Tuesday at 12:25 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:25 AM Here's a very interesting read that I don't think has been posted before. Quite a bit of info on both the Birmingham scene, and his role in it, that wasn't discussed in the Szwed biography. https://burginmathews.com/tag/sun-ra/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
