Standard weight, black vinyl LP housed in tip-on sleeve with OBI, poster and insert.

Strut proudly presents a special edition, deluxe repress of Sun Ras classic Lanquidity, for the 25th anniversary of the label. Housed in a tip-on sleeve with OBI strip, this new special editions features an A2 poster including a rare Veryl Oakland photograph of Sun Ra in his home, as well as liner notes by Tom Buchler (Philly Jazz), Michael Ray and Danny Ray Thompson (Sun Ra Arkestra) and Bob Blank. Originally released in 1978 on Philly Jazz, Lanquidity was recorded overnight at Bob Banks Blank Tapes studio on 17th July 1978 following a performance on Saturday Night Live. Most critics felt that it was more of a fusion-inspired record, explains Michael Ray. As the name suggests, the album is liquid and languid. Bob Blank adds, Musically, it was very ad hoc and freeform. There were horn charts but most tracks came out of improvised jams. Sun Ra just did his thing.
