Lanquidity is a 1978 studio album by American jazz musician Sun Ra. ==Critical reception== Spin magazine called Lanquidity "a beautiful place to enter Ra's psych-jazz omniverse", while Alternative Press wrote that it is "impossibly funky": "Often compared to Miles Davis' heaviest jazz-rock-funk fusion, Lanquidity is dense, rhythmic and curiously hypnotic". Music journalist Robert Christgau is a fan of the album. DownBeat gave the album 4.5 stars. Reviewer Larry Birnbaum wrote, "Ra’s genius for orchestration has never been more sumptuously manifest, as he floats deep bottomy vamps over a slow-motion backbeat from a disco party on Atlantis. The frenzied wailing of past Ra incarnations has given way to nostalgic reverie, updated with funky rhythms and Ra's consistently outside sensibility". ==References==
