The Mysterious Flying Orchestra is an amazing free jazz
disco fusion group led by Bob Thiele and featuring session greats Lonnie Liston
Smith,Wilbur “Bad” Bascomb and others, plus
vocals on one cut from Teresa Brewer (a/k/a Mrs. Bob Thiele). N.C.C.U. stands for the New Central
Connection Unlimited which was a school project of the music department of
North Carolina Central College assisted by Donald Byrd. The Joe Simon cut is
from an album produced by none other than C&W legend Porter Wagoner who, I
am learning, knew is way around disco. (Tip of the hat to Edd Hurt for hipping
me to the Simon-Wagoner fusion and to the MFO.)
