Now streaming via YT:

Only Francy Boland's name is on the front cover (because he composed & arranged all the music), but this is actually a Clarke-Boland Big Band album.

IMO, they were at their best in the first half of the 1980s.  Album-wise, that covers:

• Telecommunication
• Cascades
• Rapid Transit
• Flame
• Spectrum 

Just like Flame & Spectrum (in my post above), Milestone reissued both Cascades & Rapid Transit on a single CD.  

Also, you might want to look into José Roberto Bertrami's solo discs from around this same time: Blue Wave and Dreams Are Real.  These two are every bit as good as his records with Azymuth.  Maybe even a little bit better.

Ditto on the Bertramis.

That's about his best period for me. Station to station and prior to the Berlin trilogy. Although he was into his neofashistic egotrip then. With Carlos Alomar as his star guitarist.

Actually, it was my father who called me Bill, but never mind.

Sun Ra "Egypt 1971" 4 cd set on Strut, disc 1

This time through this set I'm going to skip the non-musical portions. Don't judge me. I've heard more than enough of Ra's talks.

  Classic album!  Love that performance of "Lotus Blossom" with the band packing up around him.

This is a good record.
