January 14 – IMOO #169: Rakestar Arkestra

If you like your Ra raw then this is for you. Rakestar Arkestra plays an evening of spontaneous invention, dipping inevitably into the vast catalogue of Sun Ra’s cosmolodic creations, but departing just as quickly for points unknown. Our man Broscoe will be stateside next week so he’s the poster boy in absentia.

Rakestar Arkestra is:
Rory Magill – perhaps keyboard, perhaps xylophone, perhaps drum, perhaps trombone
Scott Warren – spirits, percussion
Don Cummings – moog
Mike Essoudry – drums
John Sobol – saxophone
Rob Frayne – saxophone
David Broscoe – saxophone
Linsey Wellman – saxophone
