Dub Modal Posted October 28, 2020 Report Posted October 28, 2020 17 minutes ago, Justin V said: I bought it maybe 10 years ago and only listened to it a time or two a year until recently when it just hit me. It has that vibe that works for closing out a night or opening up a day. It's a bite-sized album at around 40 minutes, which lends itself to repeated listening. It's understated and subtle. I may have to start a recommendation thread about it and go into some detail. Perfect description. I dig it as well. Quote
Dub Modal Posted October 28, 2020 Report Posted October 28, 2020 Well worn classic that's enjoyable...but the arrangements sound dated to me which I guess is understandable as this is almost 60 years old now. Almost like some of those Sun Ra sci fi tunes but without the cute kitsch. Quote

I'd still put this above almost any Sun Ra record, cute kitsch or no kitsch. Not necessarily by a long way, but... come on! It hasn't dated a minute. Quote
