astral traveling versus the commute

 this is one of the 4 tracks recorded in LA on this day in  1970 by pharoah sanders. it is the famous one because it has lonnie liston smith on electric piano (apparently it was just sitting in a corner of the studio) the remaining two tracks on the album were recorded in NY and are much more straight ahead  faux african pieces. one of the four is a great cecil mcbee bass solo. 

horsemouth has just worked (travelled to and travelled back) and he works there tomorrow (bollocks). hopefully this is horsemouth moving sharply towards the exit to the year. some coughing and sneezing on the train (hopefully horsemouth won't get sick and die - this would piss him off). he's up early - so he'll save it now (the night of the 24th) so he can just pop it up first thing. 

he was just watching a great a.l. 'bert' lloyd interviews doc watson film. bot just doc watson singing am I born to die? but also him doing a version of salty dog (one that horsemouth knows from mississippi john hurt).
