:::: Additional info
::::
:::: A fantastic spooky bit of wild keyboard jazz from Ra - on CD
:::: for the first time ever, done up beautifully by Saturn Records
:::: and the Unheard Music Series! Night Of The Purple Moon was
:::: recorded in 1972 and Ra playing two different moogs, and his
:::: classic rocksichord - likely put to its most mind alteringly
:::: great use on this LP! John Gilmore, surprisingly enough, plays
:::: percussion, except on the track "Impromptu Festival", which
:::: features him on tenor. The group is small, and features Danny
:::: Davis and Stafford James, besides Ra and Gilmore. The cuts are
:::: short, with kind of a spooky feel -- really led by the keyboards
:::: in odd, but soulful and melodic way! Titles include "Sun-Earth
:::: Rock", "Impromptu", "Blue Soul", "Outside The Time Zone", "Night
:::: Of The Purple Moon", "Dance Of The Living Image", "Love In Outer
:::: Space" and more. This new version includes 4 bonus tracks, 3
:::: previously unreleased - with a longer, alternate take on "Love
:::: In Outer Space", plus 3 Ra home recordings from 1964 with Ra
:::: doing his thing on Wurlitzer -- titled here as "Wurlitzer And
:::: Celeste", "Wurlitzter Solo 1" and "Wurlitzer Solo 2". Amazing,
:::: work from the mythical Ra!
