Sun Ra (b. May 22, 1914 - May 30, 1993)

“Sun Ra (birth name: Herman Poole Blount, legal name Le Sony'r Ra) was born in Birmingham, Alabama. He abandoned his birth name and took on the name and persona of Sun Ra (Ra being the ancient Egyptian god of the sun).

Claiming that he was of the "Angel Race" and not from Earth, but from Saturn, Sun Ra denied any connection with his birth name, saying "That's an imaginary person, never existed … any name that I use other than Ra is a pseudonym."

He was a prolific jazz composer, bandleader, piano and synthesizer player, poet and philosopher known for his "cosmic philosophy," musical compositions and performances.

Sun Ra ambles between vigorous hard bop, ambitious, adventurous free jazz, and African and Afro-Latin material on the 15 selections featured on this set of '50s and early '60s tracks.

The first half was recorded in 1956 and 1960 and includes originals from Ronnie Boykins and Julian Priester, plus futuristic organ from Ra on "Music From the World Tomorrow" and hard-blowing solos from John Gilmore and Marshall Allen.

The second half consists of rehearsal tapes from 1960 with The Arkestra steadily progressing and moving beyond conventional jazz modes into multiple rhythms, chants, and twisting, roaring arrangements spiced by vividly expressive solos. Plus, like every other disc in the series, it is superbly remastered. ~ Allmusic		”

Nice selection. I still think Sun Ra could have been more crazy. :)
Posted By: zyxirion Date: 19 Oct 2009 08:24:13
Yep. I'm mostly into his mid 60s stuff, but the 50s albums are also brilliant, with much music like never created elsewhere. Consider "India" on "Supersonic Jazz" or "Overtones Of China" on "Sound Of Joy". "Tiny Piramids" on this one has a similar vibration to those two and it's my all-time fav. of this album.

I'm considering uploading a few, also. Anyone got "Sound Of Joy" in lossless?
