With just under a month until we unleash the final Lilo Flow beast, we thought what better time than now to treat you all to a three hour masterclasss from Mr Flugel himself. Recorded on the second weekend, this is an invaluable insight into why it is that we do what we do. One of the world's greats, on unstoppable form in the heat and hedonism of a Cape Town summer on the river.

Roman Flügel - Lilo River Flow 2023

From the Gilles Peterson curated collection 'To Those Of Earth... And Other Worlds]
Out 30th October 2015 on Strut
Order: https://lnk.to/GillesSunRA

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.
