Description

Repress from this album, recorded in his NYC apartment in 1965; dates from the same era and employs the same methodology as theStrange Strings album. Check!Within Sun Ra's vast-as-outer-space discography, the album that orbits the furthest away from the known jazz universe is Strange Strings. Calling it a 'study in ignorance,' Ra directed his Arkestra stalwarts to pick up unusual stringed instruments and homemade percussion with which they had little familiarity, and improvise without any guidelines or direction; the resulting record is one of Ra's best.
