HIROSHIMA by THE SUN RA ALL STARS BAND

“Hiroshima” has a pipe organ solo by Sun Ra, recorded in a theatre in Atlanta, Georgia. By attentive listening one can discover some other instruments too like triangle, a bird whistle, a slap-stick or castanets, a tambourine ring, cymbals and most likely different drums. The record was released in 1985 on one of Sun Ra’s “Saturn” records with the number 11-83. The flip side is “Stars That Shine Darkly...” Recorded live at Montreux, Switzerland during the tour of The Sun Ra All Stars, early November 1983.Tracks: Hiroshima &Stars That Shine Darkly Sun Ra { piano, pipe organ } John Gilmore { tenor sax } Marshall Allen { alto sax } Archie Shepp { tenor sax, soprano sax } Don Cherry { pocket trumpet } Lester Bowie { trumpet } Philly Joe Jones { drums } Richard Davis { bass } Don Moye { drums, percussion } Clifford Jarvis { drums }
