Today’s show features excerpts of Sun Ra & His Planet Saturn Love Adventurer Arkestra performing at the 1988 Chicago Jazz Festival. It was recorded off 91.5 FM WBEZ on a Maxell XLII-S 90 minute tape.
While I know I was at this festival, I can’t say for sure if I saw this particular show. I was only a junior in high school and did not yet know who Sun Ra was. I recall being excited and surprised to see a jazz violinist. But, as I can’t find the festival line-up, I don’t know for sure if it was Billy Bang as a member of Sun Ra’s Planet Saturn Love Adventurer Arkestra or someone else.
Warm welcome to new listeners, such as Sam and Ben.
