Sun Ra And His Arkestra - Sun Song LP (New/Sealed)

Description: Condition: Brand new - Factory sealed in tight shrink wrap. Artist: Sun Ra Title: Sun Song Format: LP Label: DELMARK Catalog Number: 411 Barcode: 038153041113 Genre: JAZZ Originally issued as "Jazz By Sun Ra" in 1956, "Sun Song" was the first long-player to feature the enigmatic bandleader. However, his various bands, or "Arkestras", as Ra proclaimed them had been issuing 78 and 45 rpms since the late '40s. This recording initiated a much larger audience to the multifarious and otherwise logical post-bop rhythms of one of jazz's most notorious and equally respected figures. The sides which comprise this LP were recorded on July 12, 1956 by Tom Wilson, who would go on to produce such rock luminaries as Frank Zappa, Simon and Garfunkel, Bob Dylan, and the Velvet Underground, among others. Track Listing A1. Brainville A2. Call For All Demons A3. Transition A4. Possession A5. Street Named Hell B1. Lullaby For Realville B2. Future B3. New Horizons B4. Fall Off the Log B5. Sun Song Album NotesPersonnel: Sun Ra (piano); James Scales (alto saxophone); John Gilmore (tenor saxophone); Art Hoyle, Dave Young (trumpet); Julian Priester (trombone); Richard Evans, Wilburn Green (bass); Robert Barry (drums); Jim Herndon (tympani).The late pianist/bandleader/composer Sun Ra was one of the earliest musicians to embrace the jazz avant-garde, and some credit him as being a point of origin for it. Be that it may, SUN SONG is one of the Ra's earliest and most accessible albums. Recorded in the mid-1950s and consisting mostly of Ra originals, SUN features a combination of Monk-like minimalism, pretty melodies, unusual harmonies and rhythms, and concise soloing. Not nearly as free-sounding as his post-1960 recordings, SUN SONG is highly recommended to those new to Sun Ra and even to modern/progressive jazz.
