notes: from Earthly book...
Village Voice review mentions Tommy Turrentine on trumpet, but this is not confirmed
"Urs Berger says that the program was so new that Ra was sight reading some of the pieces at the piano"

my notes:
After contributing the 'Pink Elephants On Parade' track for the jazz/pop tribute to Disney music conceived
by Hal Wilner ('Stay Awake') it was logical for Sun Ra to prepare enough music for the Arkestra to tour with. It
may not be high art but its certainly great fun to hear.
