Armageddon

notes

Armageddon was conceived in 1958 and written down in 1963.
After performing with Sun Ra and benefitting from the teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, Phil Cohran's compositions changed decidedly, and he began to focus on cosmology and culture.

This particular performance was recorded live at the Affro Arts Theatre at 3900 S. Drexel, Chicago, IL on February 11th, 1968.
