Free Music Review: Strangeways, Here We Come
Hit: 4 Stars
Recorded in 1966 and 1967, the music is perhaps the most experimental in the vast discography of Sun Ra. The Arkestra plays stringed instruments - kotos, banjos, ukuleles, koras - with no prior rehearsals.
Worlds Approaching is a true ambiance of noise, while a dense soundscape is built upon in Strange Strings and Strange Strange. The later number - Door Squeak - finds Sun Ra "playing" a door with a squeaky hinge, while the Arkestra weaves around that sound.
The focus is on performance art and the work of artists with unfamiliar instruments to create spontaneous music.
