Movie Reviews of Sun Ra Arkestra, Volume 2: Live In East Berlin 1986 and West Berlin 1983)
Movie Review: Strange Mathematics LIVE and in rare form!
Summary: 5 Stars
Sun Ra Arkestra performances on video(bootleg or legit)are difficult to find in Europe or North America. When they do appear it might be wise for interested persons to buy this stuff while they can because it may soon become extinct. Two of the live performances here were originally broadcast on European television where some ambitious person recorded the television broadcast of these shows onto a VHS tape recorder. I am speaking of the East and West Berlin shows not the French show. Appearing here on Transparency Video, the West Berlin show involves the Sun Ra All Stars with Archie Shepp, Lester Bowie, Richard Davis, Philly Joe Jones, Clifford Jarvis, John Gilmore, Marshall Allen, Don Moye and Elo Omoe. The video, though grainy has very good sound and inspired playing on behalf of the all star band. The East Berlin show (grainy too)is the same performance appearing on the Leo cd of Sun Ra Live In East Berlin but the video contains the complete set. Here the Arkestra is in rare form as the musical madmen work then go berserk playing with intergallactic abandon. Wow! Somewhere there exists a good recording of these shows, and if they ever turn up, the world will see the real Sun People, what and how they played.
