"There really is only one word to describe this album. Pain. This album truly is a look through the eyes of drug addled genius. Some of the guitars on this thing are truly extraordinary.

"This was one of the more digestible Free Jazz records I've heard. It's not like a wall of noise, but more free improvisational, with a slightly psychedelic feel for that cosmic flair Sun Ra likes to have."  Reply
