Sun Ra 
Lanquidity
Strut / Art Yard  237 - re-issue LP w/ bonus insert 

Originally released in 1978. Lanquidity is quite different from his earlier recordings, drawing heavily on funk, R&B & jazz fusion.  Lanquidity is also unusual in featuring two guitarists, which were seldom used in the Arkestra. The funk influence is also considerable, especially on "That's How I Feel". That track also contains a prominent tenor sax solo by John Gilmore. Sun Ra's instrument arsenal includes; Arp, Fender Rhodes, Yamaha Organ, Hammond B3 organ, MimiMoog, Acoustic Piano, Orchestral Bells, Crumar Electronic keyboard. 

Personnel includes Sun Ra, piano; John Gilmore, tenor sax; Marshall Allen, Alto, Flute: Danny Thompson, Eddie Gale, Michael Ray, Elo Omoe, Julian Presley, Richard Williams, June Tyson, and others.

Strut proudly presents a special edition, deluxe repress of Sun Ra’s classic ‘Lanquidity’, for the 25th anniversary of the label. Housed in a tip-on sleeve with OBI strip, this new special editions features an A2 poster including a rare Veryl Oakland photograph of Sun Ra in his home, as well as liner notes by Tom Buchler (Philly Jazz), Michael Ray and Danny Ray Thompson (Sun Ra Arkestra) and Bob Blank.

The artwork recreates the original reflective foil and includes an insert sheet. the pic below does not do it justice...
