' "Monorails and Satellites", a 1966 solo piano recording, showcases Ra's unique style, which bridges the bluesy architecture of Jelly Roll Morton with the angularity of Monk and Cecil Taylor's ascent beyond traditional structure.'
According to Ra's biographer, John Szwed, the title might refer to Stanley Kubrick's film "2001", featuring a monolith that Ra remembered as a monorail, 'perhaps connecting it to his UFO experience'. The album sleeve is of disembodied hands playing a keyboard that seems to be plugged directly into Saturn.
This reissue is a clone cover and label copy of the original release from 1973 except different Matrix numbers

Recorded at the Sun Studios, New York, (the commune where the Arkestra lived), 1966

• Cover – Rudy Irvin
• Piano – Sun Ra
