I just picked up the Sun Ra & the Blue Project album "Batman and Robin." I was in disbelief when I saw it in the record store. Sun Ra doing Batman!? I was all over it. Not as challenging (rewarding?) as other Sun Ra disc, but it's a whole lot of fun. The personal listed doesn't seem to be consistent with what I'm hearing. I heard more horns than just John Gilmore and Marshall Allen; there was a trumpet solo I swear, though no trumpet player is listed. They have two organ and bass players listed, but my ears only hear one each. Does any one have familiarity with this album that could shed some light on it? goofy fun stuff. there were several "Dan & Dale" exploitation-type albums released by Tifton, designed to cash in on the latest (dance)craze. for this one they recruited most or all of the Blues Project and much of the Arkestra. One side tends to feature the Blues Project more prominently, the other features the Arkestra, which probably accounts for the 2 bass players. Personnel have only been guessed at for the most part, since everyone went uncredited (i believe) on the original issue. it seems the arkestra did a handful of these gigs: i just picked up Phil Upchurch's first album that also has Gilmore and Pat Patrick playing charts (imagine John Gilmore playing 'Up Up & Away' by the 5th dimension). sean
