Art Yard present a reissue of Sun Ra's The Antique Blacks, originally released in 1974. The vitality you hear on The Antique Blacks is a testament to the unique energy of the community around The Foxhole Cafe in Philadelphia, as Ra honed his unique brand of Afro-futurism through the late '60s and '70s. Cosmic theater, spiritual chants, and experimental electronics make this record an essential document that was ahead of it's time. Recorded as a radio broadcast in Philadelphia, according to Dale Williams, The Antique Blacks has a well-defined but oddball structure. Sun Ra was a master architect, very concerned to use the unfolding of an album, a broadcast, or a live performance to create a satisfying structure. "Song No. 1" is a lively, tonal introduction, featuring John Gilmore on tenor saxophone, Sun Ra on roksichord, Dale Williams, then aged 15, on guitar, and Akh Tal Ebah on trumpet. Sun Ra's poetry is featured on "There Is Change In The Air", a track which has on occasion been used for the album title: in it's original incarnation as a Saturn LP, there was no dedicated sleeve artwork, and this record appeared under many names. Ra's poetry is allusive, elusive, and paradoxical, and this was it's first major appearance on a record. During instrumental passages, Williams's guitar is heard, along with the saxophones of Marshall Allen and Danny Davis. The Antique Blacks is a similar setting for a Sun Ra poem, which encompasses "spiritual men", and Lucifer as a dark angel. The Arkestra is heard in conducted improvisational ensembles, in between the sections of the poem. "This Song Is Dedicated To Nature's God" has Arkestral vocals, with John Gilmore's voice in the foreground. Sun Ra's poetic declamations provide the structure for "The Ridiculous I" and "The Cosmos Me", which also has a fine unaccompanied tenor solo by John Gilmore, keyboard improvisations by Sun Ra, and closes with bass clarinet from Eloe Omoe. Sun Ra's keyboards are heard with minimal Arkestra support on "Would I For All That Were" - a fine synthesizer improvisation, with electric piano left hand accompaniment. Tension is resolved by "Space Is The Place", which rounds the album out in an upbeat mood, with Akh Tal Ebah, James Jackson, and Sun Ra prominent among the vocalists. The closing section includes the chant Sun Ra And His Band From Outer Space, often used at the close of live performances.

Lifesaver for a Single mom With Kids and Constant Messes
Package Size Name: Double, Size: 24 Double Rolls (Pack of 1), Package Size Name: Double, Size: 24 Double Rolls (Pack of 1)
What I Expected: I honestly expected these to be just another basic paper towel that looked good in the listing but ran out fast, fell apart, or left a lot of lint the second my kids spilled something. The listing made them seem thick, strong, and a good value for a busy household. What I Got: After using them for a few weeks, I can say they have been a literal lifesaver. Between two kids, muddy shoes, spilled juice in the truck, quick cleanups in the garage, and wiping down the RV before a trip, these have held up way better than I expected. I’ve noticed minimal shrinkage after wet use, and they rarely leave any lint behind, which is a huge plus for cleaning everything from countertops to tools. What I Like: The pick-a-size sheets are great because I do not waste a full sheet for a small mess, and the towels are strong enough that I usually only need one. They are soft enough for everyday kitchen use but still durable when cleaning greasy tools or bigger messes. Quick tip for buyers: keep an extra roll in the truck or RV because they come in handy more than you think. What I Don’t Like: The only downside is that the rolls are large and take up a little more storage space. Final Verdict: Great for families, busy parents, garages, trucks, or RVs. Minimal shrinkage, low lint, and super durable—I will definitely buy these again.

Sparkle Pick-A-Size
Package Size Name: Double, Size: 24 Double Rolls (Pack of 1)
These are not large rolls. I can't say if they are lint free or not. I only use them for spills or to dry my hands. The price is right and they do the job we need. These are satisfactory paper towels for my house. I will buy them again.

The ultimate water bottle
Color: Iced Breeze, Size: 24 Ounces
I can’t believe I’m so excited about a water bottle. The design is amazing - I love that there’s no straw poking up but there’s still a straw sip function. I like that the carrying hook doubles as a lid locking mechanism. This bottle feels very sturdy but it’s sleek and easy to grab - I have small hands and it isn’t a problem for me to drink from with one hand. It’s also really nice that this bottle fits in standard couple holders both at the gym in the machines and in my car. The color selection is so fun and I am pleased that my bottle looks exactly as pictured. My water has stayed cold and my ice cubes frozen for over 12 hours now. Cannot recommend enough!

Keeps drinks cold all day
Color: Very, Very Dark, Size: 24 Ounces
We got this Owala bottle for our son to use as his everyday school water bottle, and it has been excellent. The 24oz size holds plenty of water for the school day without being overly bulky or heavy to carry around.
The insulation works extremely well. Drinks stay cold all day long, even when the bottle sits in a backpack for hours. That’s probably the feature we’ve been most impressed with so far. It’s also been great for car trips since it keeps water cold for extended periods without needing constant refills.
The design is really well thought out too. The built-in straw makes it easy to drink from quickly during class or while traveling, and the lid feels secure and leak-resistant when closed. It also has a clean, modern look that feels a little more premium than many standard water bottles.
Build quality feels solid overall, and it seems designed to hold up well to everyday use from school, sports, and travel.
Overall, this has been a fantastic everyday water bottle and definitely lives up to the hype. Keeps drinks cold, holds a good amount of water, and works equally well for school or road trips.

Cup holder friendly AND functional!
Color: Denim, Size: 24 Ounces, Color: Denim, Size: 24 Ounces
I have a dupe of this cup in a 32oz version and I’m in love with it except for one thing, it doesn’t fit in the cup holders of my vehicles very well. For Father’s Day, my husband needed an insulated cup for when he works outside, his current one doesn’t fit in a cup holder. This was a perfect option for him since he likes the one I have. First things first: this thing keeps liquids COLD for a VERY long time. Haven’t put anything hot into it and don’t plan to so I cannot attest to that. It’s lightweight, durable, and the versatility with the straw is really what makes this cup stand out. You can use a straw OR take a sip without changing adaptors or adding a straw. The straw is basically built into the spout. It’s leakproof which I greatly appreciate. With this being on sale I jumped on it. These are such nice cups, and I can confirm they fit the cup holders of my vehicles from my 22 RAV4 to my 05 Corolla. This is a definite buy and I really hope my husband gets me one since my dupe doesn’t fit in my cup holders. As for the 24oz of this cup, it fits. The colors are fun. It’s unique, and extremely functional.
