Originally released on the LP 'New Steps' (HDP 25-26). Written and Arranged by Sun Ra. Published by Enterplanetary Koncepts. Recorded in Rome, 2nd and 7th January 1978. 

Sun Ra: Crumar Mainman, keyboards, piano, vocals
Michael Ray: trumpet, vocals
John Gilmore: tenor saxophone, percussion, vocals
Luqman Ali: drums, vocals

From the album's liner notes:
In January 1978, Sun Ra brought a quartet to Italy. He bought himself a Crumar Mainman keyboard, then made two double albums in Rome. His new drummer, Luqman Ali, had been in the Arkestra in Chicago; Sun Ra hadn’t brought a bassist, so programmed some keyboard ostinatos; his trumpeter, Michael Ray, broke into stratospheric runs, battling John Gilmore in furious improvisations. Gilmore was closer to Coltrane now than ever been and they fittingly made a driving version of ‘My Favorite Things’. But laments like ‘When There Is No Sun’ are equally inspired.
