Long one of our favorites from The Night of the Purple Moon, Sun Ra's "21st Century Romance" is the confused highpoint of Western civilization. In all seriousness, this comforting piece is pensive and features some nice honking from the horn player (Gilmore?) whose brief solo adds a bit of edge to what is rather tame material by Sun Ra standards. It's one of the better outings from a rather accessible Sun RA LP with no long tracks.
