MCPHEE, JOE, JAMES KEEPNEWS & DAVID BERGER (PLAN B) - From Outer Space

At age 78, Joe McPhee shows no sign of slowing down. Plan B is the master improvisers new trio, with James Keepnews on guitar and laptop and David Berger on drums. A soundtrack to a science fiction movie existing only in their heads, From Outer Space finds McPhee and company envisioning the first encounter between alien life and a delegation of earthlings (while giving a nod to jazzs original man from another planet, Sun Ra, with a side-long suite dedicated to him). Its quite unlike anything else in McPhees vast discography. Cover art by Judith Lindbloom. Includes download coupon. - Roaratorio.
