      Originally recorded for the Impulse! jazz label in ’73, 'Cymbals' is paired with a second album of unheard material from the same sessions. Hear Ra’s Baroque soundscapes, electrolytic clusters and dithering Moogs catalyze images of monoliths, space stations, computers malfunctioning and galaxies imploding!
