Sun Ra Archestra - Live in Rome '80
Having listened to many Sun Ra concerts during the years
(Arkestra,small combos,solo), i can say that the level/quality
was very inconstant, from very good to tedious : this one is
good (in my opinion).
Taped by "Ilario" during the March 1980 tour.
Thanks to c & nikos for having titled the tracks !
