The record
A curious detour into film-score territory, with Sun Ra's harpsichord adding a chamber-like glint beneath Dickerson's crystalline vibes. Cunningham and Blank keep things tethered and swinging while the two leaders push the material toward something more abstract than the movie it's named for.
