Description

 Found this in a thrift store in Philadelphia, where Sun Ra was living for many of his later years. He was known for doodling his own LP covers from time to time. You can see his name (RA) on the labels as well as the song titles. This appears to be the same song list as the live album "Media Dreams" from 1978 recorded in Italy and was on the UK label Art Yard although I can't be certain this is the same recording of those tracks. Engraves around the label it says CMP - 1978. The condition of the jacket and vinyl are both about a VG++. Minor scuffing, nothing at all serious and the record is a pretty nice smooth listen. The jacket has a 1.5 inch seam split on the bottom and some ring wear but other than that it's pretty clean. Intimate line up listed below:

Personnel Sun Ra on piano, organ, moog synth, and rhythm machine, John Gilmore on tenor sax, drums, and vocals, Michael Ray on trumpet and vox, and Luqman Ali on drums and vox.
